A scanning device has a field-replaceable antenna provided in a door/antenna module. The housing of the device has an outer shell defining an interior space and an access opening extending through the shell and communicating with the space. The door is removably secured to an outer surface of the shell and covers the access opening. An antenna is carried by the door and has a cable extending therefrom into the space. The cable has an outer end with a connector configured to engage a component located in the space. The door is attached to the shell by means of a pair of screw fasteners. The antenna may be externally and pivotally mounted on the door or mounted internally in the door. Preferably, the door has a gasket that seals against an outer surface of the shell to seal the access opening.
