    John M and KWL, Thanks for your comments about that specific airplane, which obviously you know very well. As you say, that’s a very rare conversion of an early 210 with very different performance. I’ve never flown one but I’ll bet it would be interesting. Coincidentally I had some work done...

    HF Antenna on Light Aircraft

    Hello All, I'm reviving this very old thread as I'm interested in both airborne HF amateur radio, and in HF aircraft communications for a transatlantic flight. I'd like to hear from anyone who has installed and used HF equipment and antennas in a light aircraft. We have a 1982 Cessna T210N...
