Thanks, Exray. Yeah looks like my 12' of wire strung up was quite short if I need 75 to 100'. So what did people do back in the 30's for antenna? Terminals 2 and 3 already have a metal connector across and the screw for terminal one was halfway out so I would say it was used with a single wire. So would the solution be to build a loop antenna such as I've seen posted here in the forum? Will this help shortwave reception also? Thanks again for the help.
