I do believe that you are correct and that is the cause. The quality of the aluminum is inconsistent and as a result different antennas = different quality aluminium. Different time periods....different batches....and therefore it's a quality control problem that buyers should factor in i.e. you could get a bad one... you could get a good one. People seem to gloss over this concept with "mine still works"....."mine is awesome....rah rah rah...go Sirio!" These antennas are also half a decade old if not older. Not one of them has purchased in the last year. It's a funny concept. So because your 2009 Ford is rock solid that means that a 2023 is guaranteed to be rock solid too? It's a laughable concept when you apply it to any other mass produced product...except Sirio apparently.

As I also stated in my original post the antenna itself performs admirably... until it develops Peyronie's disease.
