TV Antenna from '84: Salvage, repair, or dispose?
My '84 Excella 31 has a Braund Super Skyliner roof TV antenna that was put on at the time it was sold originally. It worked years ago when we would watch TV channels but I know times have changed for A/V equipment. I can get it to rotate but it doesn't want to raise. Before I spend a lot more time tinkering with it and looking for parts (like trying to fix an 8-track tape player...I know I'm dating myself now) trying to get it to rotate/raise/lower I'm wondering if it's better to remove it and offer it up to those vintage renovators or just dispose of it. I still don't watch a lot of TV and I'm not considering jumping right into a satellite dish either. Any advice?
