You can replace the wire with 24AWG stranded wire.

Or order:
#54002
Red Antenna Wire for Regular Surface Receiver
$1.97

Make sure use the same length that you had before.

Unhappy

im not sure of the antenna length, as the antenna frayed off from the top and fell off before it frayed off on the bottom(where it goes into the receiver).

What is the length of wire that comes with the receiver?


Thanks for the reply! And where would I order the wire?

Should be around 29", I will have to verify.

Your LHS should be able to order.

So i will just solder the new antenna wire directly onto the receiver, or solder it onto the existing wire? I wouldnt want to ruin the receiver now would i

The best is to solder on the board.

If you don't want to do that you can contact our service dept....
