Hi Andrew,

Yes, it could be a bad cable, but there are a couple of other things to
check, too.

Has the radome been removed (particularly if it was right around the time
you started to have the glide slope problem)? The glide slope antenna is
built into the radome, and the cable to the antenna must be disconnected to
remove the radome. Sometimes it doesn't get reconnected when the radome goes
back on.

The other thing to check would be the splitter that is somewhere between the
antenna and the two radios, probably right behind the instrument panel.

Regards,
Stan
