Are all 480 antennas electric?

Evening everyone,
I was wondering... my antenna does not move, for whatever reason, but could it be a manual one? I think it is original.
I do not listen to FM radio anyway, but was wondering how correct an immobile antenna would be.
Thank you!

I think all 480s had electric aerials. Has your radio been replaced? It may just be they didn’t wire it up!

Can't comment on models for Switzerland, but early UK models (87, 88) had manual aerials. After that electric became standard fit...
