Abstract An antenna device is comprised of a base member fixed to an automobile body, a first mast member, a second mast member and a third mast member. The third mast member is supported by the base member, the second mast member is supported by the third mast member and includes a plurality of telescopic elements and the first mast member is supported by one end of the second mast member and located away from the automobile body. A feeder conductor is connected to the first mast member through an impedance matching coil with the feeder conductor and the coil being molded in a resin elevation member. The resin elevation member extends through the second and third mast members and has an enlarged portion which surrounds the coil. The enlarged portion of the resin elevation member is in engagement with the second mast member and elevates the second mast member upon movement away from the automobile body.
An antenna device comprising: a base member fixed to an automobile body; a first mast member; a second mast member; a third mast member, the third mast member being supported by the base member; the second mast member being supported by the third mast member and having a plurality of telescopic elements; the first mast member being supported by one end of the second mast member and located remote from the automobile body; and a feeder conductor connected to said first mast member through an impedance matching coil, said feeder conductor and said coil being molded in a resin elevation member, the resin elevation member extending through said second and third mast member and having an enlarged portion surrounding said coil in engagement with said second mast member for elevating said second mast member upon movement away from said automobile body.
