You could use a ball mount and then just take the
allen wrench and loosen it, swivel it down. Also you
can just use a quick disconnect, It's easy and works.
As for an electric swivel, seems like a lot of work, but
give it a try, let us know how it comes out.

If you are going to do that then carry a letherman anf take it off I
have to sometimes park in a garage with a low clearance and bought one

of
these :

I got tired of removing it. My antenna is in the rear corner of my bed

on
a
stake hole mount. I had a quick disconnect but someone other than me
disconnected it, now I can't seem to locate it

One thing I've never understood are people who mount the antenna right

next
to the cab and use a 3-4' antenna. How does that affect the performance

of
the antenna? how 'bout SWR? This is one of the reasons I went for a rear
mount. Even better than that are the sect of morons around here with

big
ass dual 5' fiberglass antennas on a pickup truck. Even worse than

that,
some don't have them hooked to anything (no radio) Hell, if you are

going
to spend the money to look like you don't know what you are doing at

least
buy a coupla 259's and a few feet of coax so it LOOKS like it's hooked

to
something. sheesh.

Interesting, thanks for the link.
I've never had any problems with my quick
disconnect leaving without me, but that mount
looks good too.
