The early 50s Grundigs have a dipole foil antenna attached to the inside of the cabinet approx. 19-20 inches extending from center of the cabinet down each side for FM and a ferrite rod loop antenna mounted above the chassis for AM. The Graetz 4R-216 I'm working on now has just a pair of 20 AWG wires for the FM. The FM antenna is then fed to the radio with twin lead wire. Let me know if you want a photo.

If you have rust between the vanes, I wonder how you get the NJ in between, and how you then wipe it off.morzh — 12:02 PM

Thanks guys. I think I'll give the Naval Jelly a try since I can better control where it goes.dconant — 09:23 AM

Just forget this number, it is useless anyway. Simply proceed with your project.morzh — 10:08 PM

My $0.02 is that it is a misprint. I tried to look up the value for the similar 84 and 37-84, and ther is no resistance...MrFixr55 — 09:51 PM
