Magnetic mounting mechanism

A magnetic mounting mechanism comprising:

• a base including a chamber formed therein;
• a chassis positioned adjacent the base;
• a magnet extending into the chamber;
• an articulator positioned within the chamber between the chassis and the magnet, wherein the articulator provides rotational and translational movement of the magnet relative to the base;
• and
• a metal washer configured to provide electrical grounding contact between the magnet and the chassis irrespective of the rotational and translational movement of the magnet relative to the base.

A magnetic mounting mechanism for an antenna assembly, the magnetic mounting mechanism comprising:

• a chassis configured to support said antenna assembly;
• and
• a threaded fastener coupled to the chassis, the threaded fastener extending through, in order:
• a magnet, a metal washer, an elastomeric articulator, and the chassis,
• wherein the elastomeric articulator provides rotational and translational movement of the magnet relative to the chassis.
