After I remove the 4 Allen Head screws out on the bottom of the Base & remove it , is it an easy task to tighten up that Antenna Body ? Is there anything I have to be careful of, besides the placement of the 2 screens ?? Any advice would be appreciated!
Thank you,

If I remember, if you don't turn the top side of the base over (it's upside down at this point) after removing the bottom side, then the screens won't fall out. The tightening should be easy. The screws on mine are Philips head.
How is the Antenna Base itself fastened? Do I need anything special to tighten up that Antenna Base itself?

Are talking about the black U terminal or the actual 2.4GHZ antenna?
the black U terminal is usually what gets loose and it’s just a nut on the inside. It’s also soldered to the board below it so don’t over tighten that and rip it off the PCB. I had one that there was a cold solder joint on it and had to re-solder it

I don’t remember, but it’s a variation of an SMA connector which will likely have a hex sized nut holding it to the case. An 8mm open wrench or even a 5/16 inch wrench will work I think.
