Brief Description:  Install Comm Antenna & Install Trim Tab Cable Hous

Using the base of the comm antenna as a pattern, I fabricated a doubler plate to go under the fuselage under the antenna. Installed doubler plate and antenna. Tested with coax. Tight fit, but doable.

Installed the cable housing for the trim tab. Measured to ensure I'd have enough for the brake cables (3' & 5', left & right respectively), along with approximately 12.5' for the trim tab. Fortunately, there is plenty of housing.

Ran the housing thru 4 grommets in the aft fuselage side angles. Then at the tail of the plane, I wasn't sure where the cable was supposed to run. The plans say to run it through one of the 5/16"" holes in the aft turtledeck former, but I didn't recall fabricating anything there, let alone installing a grommet. Fortunately the former came pre-drilled to the correct size, and I had spare grommets. (Note: the grommet isn't mentioned until SNX-C01, the controls rigging page...).
