One of the POs used a junk Taiwan antenna, that wouldn't hold a radio station unless I was across the river from it ( and I was / am ). I think it was more for looks (one of those short curly /coiled types) then anything, and when I first saw it I knew it was going to get replaced as I didn't really care for it. My used one had the little ball broke off and wasn't show quality, so I replaced it with a new one on my Notch. It works great on my Square, and fits the part better for a very used daily driver. : ) Bob 65 Notch S w/ Sunroof 69 Square AT-the baby suburban ------------------------------------------------------------------- List info at http://www.vwtype3.org/list | mailto:gregm@vwtype3.org
