Clay, If you look on this page: http://kr-builder.org/Electrical/index.html you can see how I install mine. I wrote to the manufacturer and they told me that a lesser space was acceptable, I think I was asking them about 24". You are right, there is not much room.
There is a time for building and a time for FLYING and the time for building has expired. See N64KR at http://KR-Builder.org - Then click on the pics Daniel R. Heath - Columbia, SC See you in Mt. Vernon - 2005 - KR Gathering -------Original Message------- My ELT is a AK-450, I would like to mount the antenna some where out of sight, however the instruction call for a 36 inch ground plane. This is difficult to do in a KR-2. What are some solutions to make a acceptable installation? Is a 36 inch ground plane standard?
