OEM Replacement telescopic Antenna for Tecsun Radios

[transmaster]

Any of you who have one of the excellent Tecsun portable radios will want to book mark this link. I have a PL880. It's telescopic antenna is chrome plated copper nice but the final section is rather fragile. This antenna is it's replacement from Tecsun. It is made out of stainless Steel and extends to a longer length then the original. It fits a number of different Tecsun Radios such as the PL660, PL880. It costs $10.99 with free shipping. I just ordered 2 of them to salt away in the parts stash.

There is a trick with new telescopic antennas. Use some Caig Deoxit, I use the 100% solution dispenced from the finger nail polish bottle. Dab a tiny amount on the base of each section it acts as a lubricant to facilitate the movement of the sections.

Incidentently you may not know the Tecsun brand name but I'll bet you know who they build radios for, Grundig.
