Sharp GF777 aerial size needed :-)

[Northerner]

Need to get a couple of aerials but I don't know the right size...could someone tell me the length when down and when extended, and how many sections it has please.

Thanks!

Simon, i think they are exactly the same as the 555 antennas.

Six total shafts (sections)

Length:

Closed - 8 3/8"

• When closed, Section 6 is completely inside of Section 5.
• The antenna catch "hooks" Section 1 and Section 5, which starts at 7 5/16" and goes to 8 1/16" when antenna is closed.
• Sections 1 and 5 are really the most important to get right if you cannot find original replacements.

Fully extended - 37.5"

Section 1 - 7" long, .28" diameter
Section 2 - .24" diameter
Section 3 - .225" diameter
Section 4 - .175" diameter
Section 5 - .16" diameter
Section 6 - .12" diameter
Tip - .25" diameter
