I had an intermittant problem with my radio buzzing and squawking off and on. Turned out to be a bad connection from the coax cable to the connector/plug.
In messing around with this I cut off the plug and broke the small "button" glued to the glass to connect the antenna to the in glass antenna.
1) The antenna connector is smaller than the usual antenna connector so the parts shop is no use. Where can I buy just the connector so I can solder or crimp a new one onto the coax?
2) The connector on the glass looks like one of those snaps on a pair of pajamas or similar. It appears to be glued on with a metallic conductive glue. Where can I buy just a little of this stuff? I know where I can order several ounces for something like $30, but all I need is a dab. Is it conductive epoxy or other glue or is it really just a soldered on piece?
Part numbers or sources much appreciated.
Thanks for any help. I am going crazy listening to my portable tranistor radio.
