Replace Vector 940 Antenna

[polo]

My old Vector 940 hasn't picked up Ka band in a while. It had this issue several years ago and I sent it in under warranty, the card they send back says the antenna was repaired. I also sent in my Escort 8500 X50 recently for a different issue and the antenna was replaced, leading me to think that replacing the antenna is the rememdy for many issue's.

I dissembled my Vector 940 and am wondering where the antenna is located, if I can replace it myself and where I can find a new antenna. My hope is that by doing it myself it'll be cheaper than sending it into Beltronics. Here's a picture of what it looks like dissembled;

Here is your antenna. I suggest not to separate it from the rest

Thanks very much for photoshopping that in. So basically the antenna is the entire board? Any way to repair or replace?

Yepp, antenna is almost half of the unit. Only manufacturer can repair it.
