i am aware of the fact that the line cord clip to the plug is the fm antenna. i made one from brass. i dont know what his distances for fm are or the terrain. i do know i have an outside random wire antenna that greatly increased fm reception here as most of the fm stations are in manila which is 50 miles away. the plug was missing on the radio so i made pins gleaned from a dead octal base tube. this made it real easy to experiment. trouble with all this was i couldnt figure out a way to improve ALL the bands with ONE antenna
