Hi,
I was hoping to get the TM into a 2.6 diam x 5 long AV bay (the Madcow
one) - however my forward and rear payloads are already pretty crowded with
linen, and I'd rather not have a dangling wire in there that could be
ripped off.
So - How much signal loss if that wire is just curved to fit
Thanks!
So no glue needed? I thought one needed to seal the tube against the gases?

I've been known to drill a hole small enough to be an interference fit
for the antenna wire, at which point there isn't much left to seal. But

Ah, sorry - I just noticed Casey suggesting sealing it -- thats the bit I
dont understand - the bulk head has to be removable? or is it glued to the
sled, in which case the antenna doesn't need to separate
Depends a lot on how you put things

Hey Winton, this was also my first question to the altusmetrum list, about
2 years ago. :)
Don't curve it around or dangle it outside. Just drill a hole in the
bulkhead and run it up next to the chute, then use some RTV or glue to seal
the bulkhead
