Welcome to the Phorum!
Icon_wave

The 4th radio that I restored was a 49-905. Didn't really know what I was doing at that point but my solution which seems to pull in FM stations just fine is seen in the image below:

Not an elegant solution but functional. I still don't have an AM antenna on it.
Cheers,
Bob
