I'm not so sure how well the 505 will take a good
external antenna. I know the 398 and the old 803a
did well, but the 505 I have little experience in.

If he's looking for something in the 300-400 dollar
budget, there's a plethora of used radios that fit
in that range. All depends on his listening habits.

thinking of soldering a jack on one end.

After much experimentation, I found that the jack works best at the
RADIO end of the wire.
