How to Fix a Radio Antenna

It all depends on how it is broken, but if it's simply broken in one place, aluminum foil & duct tape can fix it.

[edit] Steps

  1. For a regular radio antenna there are links in it where you can lengthen the antenna. Stuff some aluminum foil into the link directly below the break.
  2. With the same SOLID piece, wrap it up to where it is broken. Using the foil attach the two pieces together.
  3. Wrap duct tape around the foil until you can no longer see the foil.


[edit] Tips

  • Sometimes-- if the antenna it's self isn't broken, move the radio. It sometimes picks up waves easier in different areas.


[edit] Warnings

  • No worries, it's safe.


[edit] Things You'll Need

  • Duct Tape
  • A long sheet of Aluminum Foil
