For the Grundig Yacht Boy 400 PE Radio here are Two In-Door
"Hidden" SWL Antenna Ideas:


***********rest snipped********

Hidalgo,
Those are good ideas that were mentioned. I might add, and this is cheap also.

Get you a pack of "cup hook assortments", you can get them ANYWHERE for about
$1.29 (that's how much mine were.) There are different colors and style but
they're all c-shaped screw in the wall hooks -like to hhok a cup onto.-

Pick the nicest looking ones out of your package, they have like seven-ten
choices x eight different styles to choose from.

Go directly above your main listening area and screw one of those as high as
you can to the ceiling and space them out to run as much wire as you want or
need.

It really beats the 'push in pins' or thumbtacks or anything like that because
they'll pop out on you and if you've just had surgery you're not going to want
to have to deal with that.

This way, YOU pick the color and style, they all look nice and once they're
screwed into the wall- they're not going anywhere (until you unscrew it out)
and it'll hold the wire until YOU take it out.

Good luck on the surgery and the antenna project. :-) Can't go wrong with the
cup hooks.
