RE: Aurora 9 radio
Jeffy- Sorry, you have waited so long, which system did you order?
Be aware that we never said the radio was to be available in June. Our original estimate on its' release was Sept and it eventually shipped in October. I would have thought that Horizon would have filled the B/O from their first shipment, but sometimes distributors delay in ordering and then put themselves further down our B/O list. I know we just sent a bunch to them so I would suggest you have the shop you ordered from check with them to make sure that someone didn't drop the ball.

I saw a ad in a model mag and just ordered one horizon had a part number and put it on back order and I told Deno at the time it was no problem when It gets here I will be happy. You may not remember I spoke to you about 2 years ago about getting a 2.4 and was told to just wait....I ordered one 9 Channel 2.4GHz Aircraft Computer Radio with Optima 9 receiver.

RE: Aurora 9 radio
All,
I have a feeling that availability is largely a mater of which combo you order. Tower had the best price (for SuperSavers) in the A-9 & 7 chan. But they showed 2 weeks BO. OTOH, I bought two 7-chan Rx's, in stock, from them and they're on the way. Can't get the TX separately, can't get the combo I want ........

RE: Aurora 9 radio
Dear Mike,
I am looking to get into FPV and want to use my Aurora radio, which is now 2.4. I see the product number for the Spectra Pro FM module (23772) but cannot find anything for the FM antenna.
Do you have a product number for the FM antenna? Or is this included with the Spectra Pro?
Sorry if this has been asked before. I did some searching but could not locate an answer.

. Spectra Pro 72MHz PPM/QPCM Module Manual, Addendum re Range Check Specifications, Pictures & Screen Shots.
The antenna, #58005,is the same as that used in an Eclipse 7, Optic 6, Flash 5, Prism&Laser amongst other.
