ELT antenna type: whip or rod (AV200 or AV300)

This is for a standard Kannad 121.5/406MHz 406 AF-COMPACT ELT.

Could be repaired but the price seems to be under £100 – if you can find stock.

Looks like there was a redesign at some point, which is pretty obvious since the thing flexes in flight like crazy.

I wonder if there is a better antenna – the thin wire on this style is bound to break off eventually.

I found a replacement antenna:

Kannad AV200 White WHIP Antenna Low Speed 250 KN

and it is only about £100.

I got the AV200

An interesting old thread above… amazing to see how much the wire antenna bends in flight. No wonder it eventually breaks.
