Manual antenna - how to fix or replace mast

[heinsbush]

Hi All,

My antenna was not rectracting fully anymore (rusted) and also loose inside the fender.

So I removed the AC (what a pain) to get access to the inner fender.

On the pic you see the antenna.

1. Is there any chance to only replace the extendable mast?

2. how is the antenna mounted inside  the fender? Mine was just hanging there and basically only fixed with the washers outside the fender (this was not stable enough given the long mast).

THANKS
Heinz

…does someone have a picture of how a manual antenna is mounted originally?
