Does anyone have an idea for a source for a proper FM antenna for the Beomaster 5000, the tuner half of the Beolab 5000?
I have just about every connection under the sun, but nothing that will fit the 5000.
I tried two 2 meter wires stuck in the antenna ports made a T-formation and that helps a lot, but not good enough to be static free. (Of course if I stand there like some misplaced Greek statue holding the wires in the air the reception is PERFECT, but as I am not about to just stand there being a faux antenna, there has to be a better way.)
If there are no sources for a professionally made antenna, anyone have a better idea then mine, that is cutting a lamp cord and sticking it in the FM ports?
Thanks guys!
