I previously installed the TED transponder antenna which is just a round rod with a ball on the end. \u00a0When I purchased it, the blade antennas were far too expensive, so I just figured I’d live with the additional drag. \u00a0After Dynon announced their ADS-B receiver, I realized I was going to need a second short antenna, so I looked around and found that another homebuilder had started making blade antennas for about a third the cost of the other brands. \u00a0Reviews looked outstanding, so I ordered one of their transponder antennas as well as a 978MHz UAT antenna (which looks identical) for the ADS-B receiver. \u00a0I’ll install that later once I decide where it will go.<\/p>\n
