Default Simple Wire "T" Antenna for Walking-A-Round with a Pocket Radio

RHF wrote:

-IF- You are going to be actually be walking-a-round with
a small 'portable' AM/FM Shortwave Radio in your Pocket.

Then most likely you are going to try walking-a-round with
the Whip Antenna Extended. This usually results in the
Whip Antenna getting Bent or Broken.

Simple Wire "T" Antenna for Walking-A-Round with a
Pocket Radio : {Winter Weather Out-Doors Antenna}
* Four Feet (4') of Stranded Speaker Wire with an Alligator
Clip attached {Soldered} to both Wires at one end.
* Tie an Overhand Knot in the Speaker Wire about 12 Inches
from the Alligator Clip.
* At the End of the Speaker Wire away from the Alligator Clip
'separate' the two Speaker Wires down to the Knot.
* Threat the two Single Speaker Wires into the Arms of a
Jacket or Coat. Then put-on the Jacket.
* Put the Pocket Radio in your Shirt Pocket
* Attach the Alligator Clip to the Pocket Radio's Whip Antenna
{Keep the Whip Antenna Collapsed}

Turn-On and Tune-In the Pocket Radio and Enjoy your
Radio Listening and Radio Moblility - iane ~ RHF {pomkia}

RHF,

What a novel idea. How do you find the time to think this stuff up?
