A uch, they re contantly expoed to the element both in the air when parked outide a hangar. Not urpriingly, thi can reult in ignificant aging that affect performance.

He noted that deterioration in comm antenna i particularly eriou becaue they are ued for both tranmiion reception. A poor-performing antenna will reflect ignificant power back to the tranmitter, which eventually may reult in premature equipment failure. By contrat, receive-only VHF navigation antenna will lat forever if they re cleaned up.
