What kind of FM antenna does it use?

Maybe that fur down there by the green transformer? (Just teasing radiotvnut, blow that dust out of there, will ya? I keep having to resist the urge to blow on my computer screen!)

Seriously though, maybe it's one of those jobs that uses the AC line for the antenna. Looks like some good-sized disc caps on the AC input plug.
