An antenna for the FM broadcast band is typically a little longer than 2 feet. That's a quarter wavelength. A low impedence coax cable (50/75 ohms) is usually supplied with them. It would even be possible to transmit on it. AM radio wavelengths could be measured in miles so any AM antenna is

I believe it comes with everything from the two-terminal lug that attaches at the base of the windshield to the plug at the back of the radio. I haven’t seen one in a while though and don't have one right here. Here is the part number if you are interested - PP00102. You can click that or t

  It is true that the AM antenna will not effectively pick up FM. The way the AM only radios were made, utilizing a cheaper grade antenna with a higher grade internal receiver, it is virtually impossible to use an AM only antenna for FM stations. That is why when you have an AM/FM conversion done o

Is this strickly a 1969 "item?" Where would I get an antenna lead?  It's an 18 inch coax cable between windshield antenna and the radio. Can one be made somehow?  Or whaaat!!? Also what is this I heard that there were AM antennas which will not receive AM-FM?  Been hearing about that lately, but
