Since I've had my aircraft, my #2 VHF has exhibited varying levels of
reception, from none to 3-4's. During the annual last week, the problem was
tracked to the antenna, which turns out to be what the Lancair appendix
recommended as to the Loran C antenna and its location.

We ran a new coax to the antenna but the problem remains the same.
Connecting the #2 VHF to a temporary antenna for test purposes demonstrated
a 5x5 in Tx/Rx.

So wondered if re-grounding the antenna in situ might help fix the problem,
and looking for LML advice as to suggestions, with drawings/picturesetc.

Thanks
