I have a bent whip antenna that I'm about to mount in a friends Lancair
and I'm wondering if I should see any connectivity between the center
conductor of the BNC connector to the stainless steel element?

The ohmmeter shows nothing.
Is this thing have capacitance coupling?

Thanks

Dave

HI Dave- This is a quarter wave whip- Must be mounted on metal- shield
to ground next to whip- center conducter to whip- The whip is not at
ground potential- Good luck- KJ
