My antenna is two pieces. Where they fit together there are "teeth" on
each piece so that the angle of the antenna can be adjusted with respect to
the base. The teeth are held in contact with a screw. When I want to put
the cover on, I loosen the screw and rotate the antenna to lie parallel to
the windshield on the cowl. No hole in the cover is required.
