Wall-E fell but did not break

I no longer have the box, but I did post somewhere on this site what it is. It is a Radio Shack antenna with its own remote to let you enter the channel number and have the UHF antenna turn in the correct direction if it has been set for that channel. There are rabbit ear antennas attached for VHF.

I have bumped into it several times and it has fallen on the floor at least once. Last week the top popped off. It is sort of like a clam shell but without hinges. Inside is what looks like a green trapezoid. The TV wasn't working so I thought I had broken it, but it turned out the wire I saw that was still attached was for the converter box. When I looked at what was plugged in and followed the wires, I saw the one for the antenna had been disconnected. I hooked it back up and Wall-E made some comforting noises. I turned on the TV and eventually I got something. The top is back on but not securely atached, but apparently it's not needed that much.

I just use this antenna for a channel I sometimes watch which isn't on the cable system. Apparently at least one product is being made right.
