I just replaced my old Ameri-King (121.5) with an Ack 406. The Ameri-King antenna was mounted inside the canopy immediately behind the passenger seat. The Ameri-King used one of those short black bendy antennas like you see on handheld VHF radios. The Ack came with a long whip antenna that I mounted in the same location as the old antenna. The long whip is in the way and I've already accidently set of the ELT once already by hitting the antenna. Do you know if I can use a short antenna on the Ack, and if so will the old antenna work or do I need to get something else?
And before you say it, I know the install instructions say to mount the antenna on the outside (not going to happen).
Thank you,
Robert
