I've had decent results just using a 12 inch piece of single strand 18ga copper wire. Solder one end to the center tab on the terminal strip that the original antenna was connected, (on the rear of the chassis, behind the tuning condensor)... Run the other end out the back. You won't be dx'ing, but it'll get local stations just fine. Most hippos have an external antenna connection too.. you can just hook a 12 inch piece of wire to that and it'll work.
