I’m considering a horizontal installation of a 406 ELT antenna because if really in need of rescue the plane would most likely be on its nose or upside down making the typical vertical installation non functional or limited. On a tube and fabric aircraft what would be an effective sized ground plane?

Thanks
Bernie

The radius of the ground plane should be equal to the length of the antenna.
