G3X/G3X Touch Installation Manual - GTR 20 Installation

Rev. AC

Page 21-5

21.5 Antenna Considerations

This section contains mounting location considerations for the antennas required for the GTR 20.  For 
mounting the COM antenna, refer to the aircraft manufacturer’s data.

21.5.1 COM Antenna Location

The GTR 20 COM antenna should be well removed from all projections, engines and propellers.  The 
ground plane surface directly below the antenna should be a flat plane over as large an area as possible (18 
inch square, minimum).  The antenna should be mounted a minimum of six feet from any DME or other 
COM antennas, and four feet from any ADF sense antennas.  The COM antenna should also be mounted as 
far as practical from the ELT antenna.  Some ELTs have exhibited re-radiation problems that cause 
interference with other radios, including GPS.  This can happen when the COM (GTR 20 or any other 
COM) is transmitting on certain frequencies such as 121.15 or 121.175 MHz, which may cause the ELT 
output circuit to oscillate from the signal coming in on the ELT antenna coax. 

If simultaneous use of two COM transceivers is desired (split-COM or simul-comm), the COM antennas 
should be spaced for maximum isolation.  A configuration of one topside antenna and one bottom side 
antenna is recommended.  The GTR 20 requires a transmit interlock.

Simultaneous COM performance varies significantly across installations and is affected by both the 
isolation between the COM antennas and the separation of the tuned frequencies.  Each installation should 
be individually examined to determine the expected performance of simultaneous COM.

NOTE

Canadian installations are required to meet Industry Canada specifications for maximum 
radiation as documented in Radio Specifications Standard 102 (RSS-102).  For more 
information about RF exposure and related Canadian regulatory compliance, contact:

Manager, Radio Equipment Standards
Industry Canada
365 Laurier Avenue
Ottawa, Ontario
K1A 0C8

In accordance with Canadian Radio Specifications Standard 102 (RSS 102), an RF safety 
separation distance of 26 cm from the antenna should be maintained for an RF field 
strength exposure to persons of less than the 10W/m

2

 occupational safety limit.

Under Industry Canada regulations, this radio transmitter may only operate using an 
antenna of a type and maximum (or lesser) gain approved for the transmitter by Industry 
Canada.  To reduce potential radio interference to other users, the antenna type and its 
gain should be so chosen that the equivalent isotropically radiated power (e.i.r.p.) is not 
more than that necessary for successful communication.
The GTR 20 has been approved by Industry Canada to operate with the antenna types 
listed below.  Antenna types not included in this list, having a gain greater than the 
maximum gain indicated for that type, are strictly prohibited for use with this device.

A COM Antenna that meets TSO-C37( ) and C38( ) or TSO-C169( ), 50W, vertically 
polarized.  Maximum gain of 1 dBi with an impedance of 50 

Ω
