Dick when the weather warms up I plan on removing the antenna to see what
can be fixed . I was a technician with AT&T the last few years I worked they
did not want me to fix things just replace parts. One of the reasons I
retired, people who fix things are a dying breed. I have sent you a e-mail
from a man who has 1981 FSM. With picture of the manual's I wondered if
they look correct to you?

The guys at the dealerships are parts changers, not repairmen. They only
know how to go get a new part off the shelf and install it, and throw the
old one in the trash.
Mechanics who can actually FIX things are a dying breed. That is why most
of us in the old car hobby fix stuff ourselves.
Anything that was made once can be made again - all it takes is know-how and
occasionally some special tools. Of course this gets rather difficult if
it involves computer chips or sensors - but even then, there will someday be
folks who are driven to repairing even them!
Of course your antenna can be rebuilt, and someone out there will offer to
do it for you!
If I didn't already have too many projects (and too many years under my
belt), I'd offer to try this for you, but I know there is a young Turk out
there who is willing to learn.
Speak up, oh Turk!
