How To Make Your Own Antenna With Pictures!!!!
 
This takes about 5 minutes tops.

1.take a peice of thin copper wire.

2. strip the ends about an inch off of EACH SIDE.

3. Curl one end around the RS screwdriver. It doesnt matter how many times you wrap it just make sure the screw is able to screw into the hole.

4. put it on and fly away.

blurry
 
Your pics are real blurry, is the decks on your car aluminum or just painted blue?

p.s. to all: you have to use the stiff copper wire, not the floppy bendy kind like speaker wire.

actually i did use the thin wire and its imposible to wrap it around your screwdriver and then put it on.



sorry about the blurry pics guys!

You might want to use guitar string lie ph2t did. It will be tensile, so it springs right back to an erect position after being hit by something.

Like he said....Cat5 is for chumps! :D

great idea
 
Great idea Charlie Brown!!! I didn't think of guitar wire! A top E string or a B string would probably work great!!! You'd probably need some tin-snips to cut it though!

yeah good mod but ill tell you what will work better go pick you up a microsizer controller and take the antenna out of it curl up one end and screw it in longer and stffer great range too

Umm.....I didn't think of it....Give all your thanks to ph2t, (what kind of name is that anyways?) 'twas him who brought upon thee the savior of antenna.
