The VHF antenna is broken/snapped. It's still together but not much.
It's an old Archer fiberglass antenna on a swivel mount. Parents duct taped it to hold it. Is it still good or does the fact that it's snapped mean that its functionality is in some way hampered. Trying to run a knew antenna would be a nightmare. No deck access and the cable is run under the deck, though I could tie the new one to it and pull it thru hopefully. Real concern is that the swivel mount seems to be part of the antenna. It's an aluminum boat so don't want to drill new holes to accommodate and new antenna. If the antenna itself could be replaced outside of the mount, that would be great. Thanks. John |
