"V" Style VOR antenna

THANKS FOR THE REPLY.
I am talking about the thin stainless steel whiskers with a round plastic attached in the middle. Did you see the picture I sent?

I did see the photo. I suppose I should have said the photo appears very similar to what is on my plane. I cannot say for certain because I would have to remove the fin cap on top of the vertical tail to see if the mounting is the same. The "V" whiskers are on my plane so I ASSUME???? the mounting is the same but not certain.

Thanks.
I was asking for the purpose of finding out if the C337's tail vibrations are better or worst since the "V" antenna was installed? I have seen videos of the tail section on the C337 and it seems to bounce around pretty good? With the addition of this type of antenna it seems that type could possibly cause MORE vibrations. Does these questions make any sense?

I am not too qualified to comment on what vibration characteristics these antennas may or may not cause on the tail of our SkyMasters. I wish I could be more helpful but this is beyond me. Sorry!

I have the V antenna on mine original. No adverse issues that I am aware of. Very common antenna for this bird
