You're kidding, right?


Nope. The antenna is permanently installed (my understanding, as
required by the FCC for them to grant approval), and removal will very
likely damage the unit. Note to all: PLEASE do not take this as a
challenge to remove without damaging! Warranty will likely go away,
as you are doing what I have been told is expressly forbidden in the
manual.
