From: "Noel Loveys" <noelloveys@yahoo.ca> I recommend putting a ground braid on one of the nuts you would use to attach the Cessna antenna to the airplane. That antenna should give you better service than the ELT antenna which is designed to operate best at one frequency only. The Cessna antenna should also be a bit faster on the outside of your plane.

Would an ACK ELT 17.5" whip with the 18 turn coiled part near the end work as a com antenna? I also have a used Cessna 598501-0104 streamline base 23" antenna that I can use. Do you know if it actually is a com antenna and when I install it are the 4 mounting bolts enough to connect it to the ground plane or does the whole base have to make contact? Would appreciate any feedback thanks Peter
