Replacement comm antennae for 1974 mooney

[McMooney]

Anyone know the correct replacement comm antennae for a 1974 m20e ? 

Also what are the chances of getting one of the commant combo antennaes to fit ex.  ci2580-200 or ci2480-200.

Hi the CI 196 is a common upper com antenna replacement. 

The CI-122 is a common belly antenna replacement. 

I believe these two antennas are the best suited available modern comm antennas for our airplanes.

i have both.

The BNC connector is offset on the base to clear a stringer.  This is why only those two antennae work

Do you have backward 7 antenna now? If so, the CI-196 is the direct replacement for it.

Thanks All.

It might also be beneficial to consider a top and bottom antenna combo.  I swear the times when I have to break squealch in a dead spot it’s becauee both antennas are shielded by the wing.
