4. Take a 3-6 Foot piece of Insulated Wire and strip-off
an Inch of Insulation from both ends and attach one end
to a ground within the room (Cold Water Pipe?). Make
sure that the Radio's Whip Antenna is fully extended.
Next "Touch" this Wire to the Exposed Ring of the
Radio's Earphone Jack.
- - - Does the Radio's Reception Improve or get Noiser ?
Try this on the AM, FM and Shortwave Bands
HEY - Even try Touching this Ground Wire to the
Radio's Collapsed Whip Antenna )
- - - Does the Radio's Reception Improve or get Noiser ?

"IF" - When you "Touch" the Wire to the Exposed Ring
of the Earphone Jack the Radio's Reception Improves.
Then Modify an 1/8" Mono-Plug to put into the Earphone
Jack to connect a Ground to the Radio for Improved
Reception all the time {most of the time}.

Easiest "ground" is to use the ground socket on your AC outlet.

I find a banana plug fits about right....
