I was looking out the window and thought my antenna looked odd and out of position. Found out it had been completely shattered from the support bracket at the top of the extension arms and tossed around the support arms. Plastic Bracket is integrated to the antenna so whole unit appears to be toast unless I jerryrig a new support bracket.
Wondering if the basic wineguard antenna is worth replacing in kind, to upgrade to a new type of antenna -either for the hd broadcasts. Or try for wifi/cellular.
We occasionally put up antenna for local tv on trips but it's not as critical as getting solid wifi for us.
Antenna.

However if I choose to upgrade -coax appears to be going.
The attached coax cable looks like the cover has rotted in several places and this cable runs thru the support arms and into the roof and likely over to the entertainment center. Not sure how easy this is to replace completely or to try to cut and splice.
