Hi Rocket,

Not a power antenna, but I bought this one:

http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/260941191234?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p39
84.m1439.l2649

I'm sure you'll find one locally (to save on postage).

Note that I found 3x people who were all selling the same item, with wildly
varying prices.

Regards,

-Dan

I swear I have had to replace the antenna on this '84 four times now. It was
broken once due to vandalism, once when it was in a shop being serviced
(they denied all knowledge), and twice due to simple boneheadedness on my
part.

So -- is the '84 a candidate for a power antenna (the radio has an antenna
up/down output pin)? And if so, who sells a good one?
