I didn’t want to spend the money on one and I very rarely use the radio anyway I just took a hacksaw and cut my antenna down to a 10 or 12 inch one and took it to my grinder and smoothed out the top so it wasn’t like a death spike if you accidently fell on it. If you don’t use the radio what’s the use of buying one

And its free and not bad looking my radio still works if needed

Do you have a link? I'd be interested in getting one. I'm tired of my antenna hitting the garage door every time I pull in or out of the garage.
