Yes, the antenna is detachable. The radio has a female threaded connector. Looks like about a 3/32" size to me. Of course the antenna has a corresponding male connector.Douglas

Yes, the antenna is, in fact, detachable. It is a standard male/female system that is very solid without overtightening.I picked up some Galati Gear Molle Radio Pouches here on Amazon. They are the best, in my opinion and the molle system works well with my gear.

No. I got it 3 months ago and it's not removable. The saber is really cool though.

It is not removable but supposedly you can move it from one side to the other. It was too stiff when I tried, so I gave up.

yes its detachable. I have always used the antenna that came with it and haven't had any problems with reception.

No. Antenna only. But uses standard F connector cables which you can get from Radio Shack or if you want better quality for less, Amazon.

According to my instruction manual it is, but in reality, it is NOT removable.

The antenna should unscrew. You may need to use a pair of pliers to loosen it. Try wrapping a rag around the new one so you don't damage it with the pliers teeth. Only snug it. Don't crank on it because you could strip the threads out.

No they are not; at least, not without opening up the case. They are not the standard replaceable external antennas.

I just took my antenna base apart and found out that the connections are NOT soldered. they are just pressed or smash connected. so, you can change out the cable. be careful to align all the parts when you are rebuilding the base.

Yes, you can unscrew the antenna, but since the antenna cable is hard-wired, no connector on the antenna base, you cannot put away the antenna.

Antennas are detachable (scew in) but the base attached to the board is cheap quality and can easily break. Mine broke and has rendered the unit useless (for wireless) as only way to get this repaired would be to solder the new socket on to the board which entails shipping it back for repair or replacement and since this happened just after a year of purchase, it would be costly.

Yes, but drilled hole on new antenna was off hole on radio, so had to remove sm. part on radio to accommodate new atenna. Keep all old parts for any adaptation needed...

No it is not. It has a permanent cable that goes into the bottom of the device and if damaged, the entire antenna will need to be replaced. The cable is smaller around than the cable that was on the antenna I replaced.

Antenna is removable from mount but I think it is mount specific. I don't believe it will screw into conventional mounts or spring. Look into a firestick.

Yes, the buttons are the tip of an extendable antenna. Latch on with finger nails and pull out.
