Before you rip out the old antenna, figure out *why* it broke. Depending on what broke, you may be able to replace/fix it without removing the whole thing.

Don't let the dealership sell you an entire thing with the motor and all - just the mast and cord can be replaced with relative ease and that's the piece that generally breaks.

My stock antenna gets great reception - what else can you expect with that 18-foot mast!
