 |
|
I just ordered two Comant CI-105 transponder antennas from PacificCoast. I could swear that the last time I ordered this antenna (about 2008) that it came with an aluminum backplate. Perhaps 1.5" x 5" with holes
prepunched for the BNC and two stud posts. Both of the antennas I just received have a cork gasket, but neither has the metal backplate. Am I crazy?

Matt-
Maybe, but who am I to judge. ;o)
IIRC you are correct though. They have probably have "valued engineered" the product now and increased their profit margin a little.
Just make some. If you need some stock I probably have a bunch in my hangar.
