Replacing Antenna
Ok, so, my antenna is really starting to **** me off, it is getting worse and worse about going down. What are my options about fixing it?
I was thinking about putting in an aftermarket antenna that is stationary. What do I need as far as an adapter for the diversity antenna?

Try helping the dying first...
Lubricate the antenna with lithium grease, take down/up 10x, wipe off.
Make hole [solder-iron tip] on top of the antenna gearbox (trunk) and spray in lithium grease... close hole.
These should be done periodically - the motor will last 'forever'...

About the gearbox...how do I 'spray' grease in?

I know two ways, first I explained above
II Second is to pry open the antenna gear body from middle, just ajar, spray in, close
