xcrmckenna Posted April 4, 2017 Report Share Posted April 4, 2017 I want to order a cover and when I call them I don't want to prove to them I'm an idiot when I don't know what type of antenna I have and try to explain what it looks like.... I'll let you all know I'm an idiot though:) Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carusoam Posted April 4, 2017 Report Share Posted April 4, 2017 (edited) How do you spell that antenna's name...? 7 or Seven? You're going to need a picture from the other side to support your description though. Jim Cancil would know what you meant. The cover guys generally know where the antennae are and what the choices are. They just need to know to use the right design that they already made. Use extra care if your antennae are not original from Mooney. Best regards, -a- Edited April 4, 2017 by carusoam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TWinter Posted November 11, 2017 Report Share Posted November 11, 2017 To think I just thought of it as the "Boomerang" antenna. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
