Silversurfer,
Not sure how you got the idea that I am in any way offended by your posts. Quite the contrary. I just feel that it gets a little confusing to those that are trying to make an intelligent choice on matters such as this when they read information posted by others that just isn't true.

A lot of coverings have a metallic layer in them that will block the reception of the signal if the antenna is completely inside the plane.
This statement is not posted as an opinion, it's posted as though it's a fact. Big difference.

Those that want to keep the antenna inside with metallic and similar coverings should do so. It's THEIR plane, after all, and they should be able to take any risk they want.
Again, your personal opinion, not fact.
