Here's a roof shot... This shows two antennas on an SD38. The
one towards the back is a firecracker style antenna. The one
to the left is a "top hat" style antenna. It's
hard to tell, but the top hat portion might actually be just
the groundplane disc of the original antenna, and the can is
actually an EOT antenna they mounted on the old disc. Photo
