YUP,
I got me one of those "Tiny Tenna" thingys and had a lot of trouble with
it. I went down to the Radio shack and got me some plugs and it works a
little better.

I got me an adaptor so my headset would plug into the little plug that
came with it then I hung the long thingy to the top of my drape in the front
window of my trailer where I can watch the neighbors come and go and so they
could see my new "Shortwave RADIO".
I took an alligator clamp and a few feet of wire and hooked one end to
the trailer hatch and then moved the clip up and down the long wire thingy
until I got a station.
The reception ain't to good here in the park but the neighbors think it
works great, I just smile and adjust the wires a little. I hope Bill is
going to put a volume control on his new version.
