VOR Signals are Horizontally polarised and VHF COM Vertical.

 Very helpful advice, thank you!

 Now, the question remains, is it better to orient the antenna horizontally for NAV, compared to vertically for COM?

    BOB Archer makes a whole set of antennas for glass aircraft.  Aircraft Spruce sells them.  I put my VOR antenna in the wing.  I can get a good signal fifty to sixty miles away.

    I hope you have not closed out your wing.  If you have then you could built a Balun  antenna.
