Attach a wire the length of the last segment. It might not be pretty, but
I'll bet it would work S.


Actually....I have no idea how long the missing segment (or segments) are but
I'm thinking that with 24 inches still there, that's probably enough for FM.

Amazingly, I have yet to find a website that explains FM whip antennas and the
best way to use them.

I have a Zenith TransOceanic and its manual states that its combination SW/FM
whip should be pulled out only 18 inches and angled at 45 degrees to the
horizontal for best reception when using FM. Maybe what I've got left is enough
and a whip any longer wouldn't make reception any better.
