Default mag base remagnetizing

Has anybody remagnetized a rotary on-off mag base before? I was thinking
about a large capacitor and some turns of wire on EI transformer core
with the Is removed and the indicator base across the center and one side
leg.

How are these magnetized at the factory?


Is this a mag base to mount an antenna on a car roof?

Why not get a bunch of old hard drive (rare earth) magnets, and just
epoxy them onto the bottom of the existing mag base, and cover with some
thin felt for protection?
