| Subject: | Surplus comm antenna |
--> Avionics-List message posted by: "Ken Simmons" <ken@truckstop.com>
I got what I thought was a good deal on a surplus comm antenna, but I'm
not sure now. I can't seem to find any information on the antenna. It's
a stainless steel bent whip with a ceramic insulator at the base. The
only numbers on the insulator are NS4W4103 and under that CAS. I can't
find any specific information on this antenna. The only thing I found
was a general statement that this type of antenna is no good above
127MHz. There is also some question of how much airspeed this type of
mount can handle (building an RV-8). Any ideas?
Thanks
ken
