REFLECTOR: Remote compass location

[Keith Hallsten]

Scott,

I'm putting my magnetometer in the end of the strake.  Several others have
reported no problems in that location.  I'll try to keep as much space as
practical from the strobe/nav light wiring, but I don't anticipate any
problem.

I need to locate my remote compass.  Supposed to be clear of  big iron 
and large currents.

I would really like to mount it on the canard, but am concerned with its 
closeness to the stack and rudder peddle mechanism.  Anybody have one 
mounted there with no problems?

I also though of the small cavity at  the outboard end of the strake 
where the outboard wing attach bolts are, though the wires for the 
strobes run right through there.

Scott
