My empennage kit just arrived!

New Zealand has its second RV10 underway. Let the journey begin.

Agree with Kelly on this. Even Cirrus with their all composite airframes have one antenna on the top and the other on the belly. Certainly if one wants to follow function over form and there is no concern for remote ground reception, dual belly antennas will be fine.

Les,
That might be a good location for one antenna. Putting two antennas within about 2 ft of each other is not good.
I'd consider either mounting one near an access panel on underside of wing or far enough back in the tail cone to have more than 3 ft separation between antennas. Alternatives include a Bob Archer wingtip Com antenna, an antenna on the top of the fuselage. The more separation you can get, the better. Of course you also need to consider separation from your ELT antenna and from GPS antenna.
