Sovereign 2 telescopic aerial replacement

[Nebogipfel]

I'm not a fan of Hacker .........

Strewth David that's a risky statement within Mark's hearing

Thanks for the links. I have never actually bought anything by the "slow boat" but some of the prices look very good.

The Hacker aerial I need does in fact mount into the base of the set and pretty much fully retracts. They look to be bigger diameter than many of the modern ones.

As I broke mine close to the top I think I'll simply araldite the top section into the stump and be vigilant for a suitable period replacement as has been suggested.

On an aside and as a general related question I wonder if anyone knows of a way to lubricate retractable aerials without making a mess? My excuse is that had it not been so stiff to close I would not have snapped it off ........nothing to do with clumsiness of course
