Default Sony SW100 + KA31/DE31 active antenna ?

I found a first answer here :
http://www.dai.ed.ac.uk/homes/cam/gadgets/SW100.html

Extract :
"If you want to use a Datong or other active/passive aerial plugged into the
external aerial socket then insert a .01uF capacitor in the centre lead to block
the power (this remark may not apply to the post-1997 SW100)."

As far as I know : 0.01 uF = 10 nF, so IF the lead-in center connector of the
DE/KA31 jack is protected by C1 in the schematic, then the antenna will work
with SW100... according to what is said on Chris Malcom's web page.

But is it ????
