<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Several years back I had one on an ACE Micro Pro
& it worked fine. I never considered it for my Futaba 9ZAP because it would
not fit in the case.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>If any one has a simple solution for the case
problem I would probably go back to it. Once it is on the radio, you
cannot forget to extend it and it is never in the way. </FONT></DIV>

<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN class=685374916-04112002>Wanting to replace
my stock antenna on my 8U with one of those shorter whip antennas. I
have looked around the web and couldn't find one (Central, Radio South,
etc.). Any tips on a brand / source? BTW, if this is a bad idea
for performance reasons, please tell me that also! TIA,
Chuck</SPAN></FONT></DIV>
