Van's com antennas

I need to order a com antenna. Van?s sells both Commant and Rami bent whip antennas. The Commant is slightly more expensive. Does anyone have any comments, good or bad, about either brand?

Thanks in advance,

Rami

Hi Cameron,
I have 2 Rami bent whips, they work great. The Rami antennas are manufactured in Grand Haven Michigan, they are located next to the airport and one of the managers is a member of our EAA chapter.

I've used several Commant antennas and they are great. Com antennas are very simple devices. You need correct length, inpedance match, and vertical polarization. Not much to go wrong. I can't imaginine a problem with any commercially available unit.
