RocketAviator Posted November 5, 2013 Report Posted November 5, 2013 Need a little help here please. Looking for information on Manufacture / Part # or specific information on the VOR / Glideslope Towel Bar Antenna on my 1983 Mooney M20K 231 Rocket Conversion. Anyone know the part# or have purchased a replacement for their plane. If so any of that information would be very helpful. I cant get to the plane until late tonight and my avionics man need this info ASAP.
OR75 Posted November 5, 2013 Report Posted November 5, 2013 I believe it is a Comant CI-205-3 But that is not extra ordinary and very rare part ... Just the good old VOR/LOC/GS technology. I would think ANY avionics shop should easily locate the replacement part number.

I am sure you are right that the shop could do as you say if they had access to the airplane but I am here and they are asking me to ID it as they state there are a number of possibilities. Thanks for the feedback.
KSMooniac Posted November 5, 2013 Report Posted November 5, 2013 My M20J parts manual makes no mention whatsoever of the antenna unfortunately...
OR75 Posted November 5, 2013 Report Posted November 5, 2013 It would not be in the M20J parts manua. Antennas / avionics installed at the factory would be in the equipment list of the POH In an 83 mooney, the original antenna was probably a Cat Whiskers type rather than a towel bar. New antenna part number should be in the Airframe logbook

New antenna part number should be in the Airframe logbook I have checked the POH no mention of the antenna, I will check the airframe logbook. I am going tonight to see if I can determine I have downloaded and printed the Comant VOR/LOC/GS CI 205-3 white spec sheet so maybe I can figure it out.... Thanks
