1985 TV antenna lifter motor

[Pete Masterson]

My coach is 10 years newer -- and I thought the "tock-tock-tock" sound was the usual mode of operation. Now I wonder about that switch!

My antenna has worked as expected, except once when it hit some tree branches when it was raised. Then it wouldn't come down until I gave it a little push to get it started while my spouse pressed the 'down' switch.

Now you got me thinking that I'll have to pull the cover off to see what's in there!

There is a micro-switch positioned such that it probably was intended
to open the circuit, stopping the motor when the antenna was
completely retracted. However, the usual mode of operation during my
ownership has been to raise or lower the antenna until slipping is
heard. (This is a "tock-tock-tock" sound.)
