Power cord on AM/FM radios - Eric Adams - 01-27-2013

I'm working on an Airline (Montgomery Ward) model 94B-1535A. I want to replace the power cord but it has a third wire in it for an FM antenna. Does anyone know where I can get a replacement, or is there another way that you know to use a two wire cord?

Thanks,
Eric

Short answer is to loacate connection to "third wire" antenna and connect a piece of wire, perhaps 3 feet long, and dress for best reception in room. OK to wind a couple of times around newly replaced line cord if that helps but no direct connection ever.

Thanks, Codefox,

I'll give it a try.
