Tonight I started work on the antenna cables beginning with the com radio antenna cables. I watched a Stein Air video on the simple process for crimping the BNC (and TNC) connectors. I had previously ordered a bunch of connectors and cable from Stein, so I had it all on-hand.
I ran the Com2 (passenger side) cable first. This follows the control stick cabling under the seat and into the tunnel. I routed it from the antenna to the remote radio box and then installed a BNC connector on the radio end. Then I estimated the length of cable I will need, and cut the cable to length at the antenna end. At that end, I installed a 90 degree fitting to keep the cable clear of the control stick and laying flat against the floor.
A repeat for the pilot side, except the cable crosses over to the right side of the tunnel to keep it clear of the GPS cables that will run on the left side of the tunnel. The panel end connects into the back of the G750.
