Will this work ok? Do the strobe wires cause problems? As always thanks in advance!
Dan, I know everyone (probably including Dynon) calls those 'antennas', but they are actually receivers. The only thing traveling on the wire is power & digital data. Most 'pucks' these days are actually receivers, but if we aren't clear on what we're talking about, someone will read the thread & think they can remote the external antenna for their portable (396, 496, etc) out at the wingtip. Not likely to work well, in those cases.
edit: Just saw that the Garmin is coax, so it might actually be at least IF instead of digital data. the GDU375 is too new for me.

Are there any particular requirements for GPS receiver/antenna distance from aircraft centerline that are relevant to an installation intended for use as an IFR navigator for enroute and approach guidance?

For IFR work, I didn't want the approx 12.5 foot offset from center line I would have had with it in the wing. Probably wasn't really an issue but . . . . .
