XGPS170D. A dedicated, passive 978 MHz tran
-
sponder antenna mounted on the bottom of the
aircraft is an ideal external antenna option. This
antenna should be placed at least 36” away from
the existing transponder antenna. Use RG400
cable to connect the antenna to the XGPS170D.
A male SMA connector will connect to the antenna
port on the XGPS170D.
IMPORTANT: DO NOT connect the XGPS170D to
the existing transponder antenna on your aircraft.
This will irreparably damage the XGPS170D.
