Has anyone tried running the 39 with the little stub antenna down? I don't recall any documentation stating anything about it one way or another. I have not tried it yet ...
And while I'm on it, if Garmin looks at this, call me picky, but could Garmin have made the 39 any uglier? Having things sticking up in my field of vision on the glareshield messes with me in my taildragger. But that's just me and my glareshield, it's a little smaller than newer Cessna's. The stubbie also limits exactly where you can put it up there too. You can't get it as close to the windscreen like a flat one. I wish they could have made it flat like some of the other ADS-B units without the vertical antenna. But ...
I like how my N7 with GarminPilot and the ADS-B perform overall, with the situation awareness, weather, and reams of information.
