@XR500 nah they isnt screw in hobbies.
Used walkies a lot in the last few years and the true industrial ones have a male thread in the body and the aerial screws in.
On these models, the aerial is a spring that comes out of the circuit board and this slips over it.
The grove in the base is like a piston ring grove and is held in there by the two case halves.
I splurged on them back in 2006 and havent used them bugger all. Been in the drawer mostly so cant blame the sun.
To everyone else looking for bits I do appreciate it
