I can't seem to screw in the threaded base of my telescoping antenna sections into the ?? (seems like rubber ) about 2" into the tube.. This antenna was fully extended and has a clear plastic shrink wrap coil the same diameter as the tube. I opened trim panel, no help, nor Haynes manual. Is this the proper antenna, should it completely retract into the tube? I'm wondering how does an electric antenna work (cables?, a screw jack?, it's obviously not hydraulic and for a rack the pinion motor would not be at the base?)
