On most sets the cord FM ant coupler is just a piece of sheet metal and some cardboard to protect the cord insulation from puncture.
I've never made this exact piece but I've made plenty of trickier stuff. Just need to find a piece of metal thick enough to hold a bend but thin enough you can cut it with tin snips or a Dremel cutoff wheel copy the flat shape of one from another radio, file the sharp edges off, then bend it up, stick the cardboard and cord in and press it till it grips the cord well.

I tried to make an antenna in a style similar to the one that's on the Zenith J733 Clock Radio which was using a rubberized metal cable clamp that was riveted to the cord along with a 6" length of wire and I hooked that wire to the internal antenna terminal on the back and left the int. antenna jumper in place but it doesn't seem to be working right.
Any ideas as to what's going on with my setup, and why its not woring?
