I dont believe I did it. I broke the whip antenna on my new 7600gr. I had
it set up with the sleep timer on when I went to bed. The whip was extended and I had the external antenna clipped on to it. The external wire was running across the room. I woke up later in the evening and decided to get a drink of water. I forgot I had the antenna wire going across the room. Yep... I walked right into it. The radio came flying off the shelf I had it on, and when I turned the light on, the whip antenna was bent at a 90 degree angle.. LOL... TWEAK !!!!!!!! I'm gonna call Sony parts and see about getting a replacement. I bet the antenna cost $100.00 :-) I still dont believe I did it... TWEEEEEEEAK !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! -- Respectfully, Michael Location: New Jersey Primary Receiver: R-75 with full Kiwa mods Antennas: G5RV, 200ft "Frankenstein" roof wire Additional Radios: 7600GR,KA-1101,KA-1102 PL-550, KA-989, Info-Mate 837, GE-SR III Westinghouse H-104 (seven tube) Web Site: http://md_dxing.tripod.com |
