Hi Mike,
Sounds like you are describing the Marker Beacon Antenna. It won't be
much chop for VOR reception. If you are after a VOR antenna in the
wing, you will nee the Bob Archer Nav antenna (or equivalent).
Cheers,
Ron

Subject: Nav Antenna
I am at the point of installing an "In-Wing" Nav antenna. I saw that
Vans has such a Nav antenna on their web site (with no picture)- it was
quite inexpensive. I ordered it and it is essentially a piece of 25"
copper tape to which you solder a connection with the (included) antenna
wire to the panel. Has anyone installed this device and with what level
of success in receiving VOR signals. If it is ho-hum on the reception,
should I try the Bob Archer unit that sells for about $88 at Spruce???
