Broken TV Antennae

I had to replace the Winegard TV antennae. The knob that turns the antennae quit working. Turns out the bottom of the antennae broke off. Decided against taking it to the dealer for warranty as it costs me $50.00 and loss of use for each warranty trip. Emailed customer support at Winegard and they wouldn't honor any warranty claim. I bought a new unit on Amazon and replaced it in an hour or so. Glad I did. Turns out Thor used no butyl tape between the antennae head and the roof. Only a couple of beads of dicor. The front of the factory installed antennae was also oriented to the right rear of the roof and the coax connectors were loose. Before new antennae I got 14 over the air channels, now I get 37.
