CB antenna junk again

Is this really a fit it in the garage without scraping up the door issue?

No not really. I don't run with the antenna on the base all of the time.

The way the antenna is made (and the way I drive off-road) a nice limb would slice it right off at the base because it would wedge at the rear of the rack, even though it's magnetic. I've already tried to tear the old cross bars off a couple of times on the sides of trees. So I am trying to think pro-actively and have the antenna protected, before there was nothing to "hold" it and a limb would just knock it loose and all I would have to do is put it back in place.

But, alas, I get too anal about stupid things like this and overcomplicate it. I should have just stuck it on the rack to begin with and not worried about it.
