Thank you boaterbob and rzcrisis. Ideally one where you can remove the mast and leave the base in is what I am looking for. I will check to see if there is an Allen screw on the original or if the mast just unscrews. It looks to be an original antenna but I am not 100% sure. If it is not original, I'll just cut it down since I don't use it. But I won't cut an original part down even if I am not using it for obvious reasons.

They make these little stubby antennas that are only a few inches in length. Those may be able to be left in place with the cover on, but can be unscrewed. I wonder what kind of reception one gets with such an antenna...

I have also found these hidden antennas that plug in but then you mount it somewhere so you don't need an external antenna.

Thank you for your help. If I cannot remove my mast without removing the base, then I may have to pull the wire through.

Is it difficult to remove the inner fender well to free the wire?
