Transmit/Receive Antenna Installation:
Refer to SENSOR Systems drawing S67-1575-164 in Appendix A. S67-1575-164 shows the
dimensions of the antenna and mounting holes. Refer also to drawing ENG-5022. ENG-5022 is
the antenna mounting template diagram. It is scaled 1:1 so it can be used to mark hole locations
and antenna outline.
The antenna will secured through the aircraft skin at the top center of the fuselage 112.5 inches
back from the firewall.
Prepare the mounting location by drilling holes in the aircraft skin or through a mounting plate.
Installation of an antenna on the aircraft should be performed only as defined by the aircraft
manufacturer.
In addition to the location for the mounting, the aircraft surface should be prepared by removing
the paint where the antenna will attach to the skin.
Note: The bond between the airframe and the antenna needs to be 10 milliohms or less. Make
sure that this antenna has a spatial separation of 45dB between it and any GPS antennas (as
defined above).
You should note and mark on the antenna which terminal is Tx and which is Rx so that the mark
can be seen after the antenna is mounted on the airplane.
From the inside of the aircraft secure the antenna using the supplied “O-Ring” and doubler plate
(402-1575). Refer to drawing ENG-5026 showing the antenna/O-ring/skin/doubler stackup.
After antenna is secure, seal around the base of the antenna with RTV compound to keep
moisture from getting between the antenna and the aircraft skin.
The picture below show the Antenna mount from the outside the aircraft.
