Default Replacement whip antenna for Sony SW7600GR

Anyone know where to find a replacement whip? I went to Radio Shack
and they no longer carry the replacement whips. I tried the Sony site
but the search turned up nothing, I probably had wrong Sony site.

Knowing Sony, you could probably buy a new radio for not much more
$$$.......

My experience with Sony and Panasonic when it came to replacement parts
and manuals was much better than that.

If you are convinced that it isn't worth a call to a toll free number,
so be it.

I have a thick Radio Shack catalog here that the Radio Shack store
inside Metrocenter Mall www.metromalljackson.com gave me about two
or three years ago and the catalog has several pages of listings (with
some pictures too) of all kinds of replacement whip antennas.They don't
carry those replacement antennas anymore? F..K! Radio Shack! I think
Hooper Sound store on Terry Road has them.

Go to a Radio Shack store.Buy a radio that has an appropiate size
antenna you need.Take the radio home and remove the antenna (don't leave
any of your fingerprints on the radio,wear gloves) and then box up the
radio (minus antenna,of course) and take it back to the store.Later
on,call the store and tell the guy/gal his
girlfriend/boyfriend/wife/hubby is cheating on him/her.

I went to site and sent them E-Mail with parts request, they said to
allow 3 days for a reply. If that doesn't work, will try 800 number.
