Default RE: spektrum tx and rx question

Hi Nick
I have been using the DX5e in my Soling 1 meter RC sailboat . In my instruction book it just says to keep the long and
short antenna's at 90 degree's to each other - and keep the antenna ends at least 3 '' apart .
on my boat , I have a piece of velcro glued onto the bulkhead by the spar support . the original owner drilled a small hole in
that station , and has a plastic drinking straw that is glued under the deck . my LONG antenna lead just goes into the straw
and is then running forward right under the deck . the short antenna lead just sticks out from the RX and is at right angles to
the long lead.......and the RX is stuck onto the bulkhead -high and dry .
Does this help any ?
