Default Power Antenna

My antenna does not seem to extend all the way. I'd say it appears to extend maybe 3/4 or a little more because the bottom two sliders dont appear to fully extend. One is extended like maybe 3 or 4 inches, the other looks like it is almost all the way in comparison to the other sliders.

Maybe this is normal.

Do you know?

Thanks.

The Ls has an antenna that adjust it's height to best receive the stations.............Just switch it from FM to AM and it will move up and down a little.............that's why this car is very hard to install an aftermarket antenna into it.
