That sucks mannn...

I thought of threadlock too, but its better to not use it. Because they'll end up screwing up the car/antennae mount in the process of stealing it.

too bad we can't wire up an electric current to whoever tries to steal it.

Sorry to hear that Drew, it's just sad how nobody would do anything about those low life scumbags!

Hopefully someone on the forum would have one laying around that you can use?

The idea of the hot antenna, a video camera and a case of beer sounds like a great idea for a group meet... LOL

Sorry to hear it drew - sucks... I'm always taking into consideration where I am going with mine as to the vandalism / theft risk involved.

I'm surprised they would steal something like that. Those antennas seem so common now.

I wouldn't try thread lock, since it would probably effect the electrical connection.

I guess the alternative is to remove it after you leave the car parked in a public place. Sucks that people are that cheap...
