I am not sure where I got the information/idea for my transponder 
antenna but it was not original. I located it in the nose compartment 
under the oil cooler by making a sheet metal shelf attached to the 
oil cooler duct/ heat plenum and the fuselage. the metal shelf is 
approximately 6 inches square which is about what you need for a 
ground plane and the coax length is short.
