Default Aircraft antennas

I can send you forward and reflected power readings if you wish, say
every 1 MHz from 118 to 136. Now, with that said, that is measured on
the ground, not in flight where the whip curves back from all the high
speed flying at 75 MPH

Believe it or not (I checked with trusty wattmeter), I get good SWR across
the entire Comm band using a cheap ELT antenna I bought from Chief
Aircraft for about $35 several years ago (the one that has a very flexible
whip).
