Thanks Jack.

Hi Matt:

I just used the Nav antenna with no modification. Theoretically you sh= ould shorten it to be optimum for the slightly higher Com frequency range b= ut the gain realized is not worth the effort. By leaving it alone you have = the option to use it as a Nav antenna in a later configuration where maximu= m sensitivity is more important. To really optimize the antenna for Com you= would need to slightly change the tap point as well as the coupling capaci= tance associated with the tap. In real practice the noise level of the audi= o at the fringes of reception are not significantly different between the C= om1 and Nav antennas to warrant retuning the Nav antenna.

Hi Jack,
 
I am wanting to install an antenna in the left wingtip on my Leg= acy for Com2. I am wondering if you could recommend one. It looks like I wi= ll need to get one of the Bob Archer VOR antenna's. It doesn't look like th= ere is an actual Bob Archer Com antenna that will fit. What did you use spe= cifically in your wingtip? I remember reading some time back that a com and= vor antenna are very close in size so I am guessing I could use them inter= changeably. Not sure.
 
If anyone else has any experience with this I would also appreci= ate their input.
 
Matt
