Replacement antenna advice? **SOLVED**

@renke, thanks! I called Williams Sound, though, and that one has a weird screw-to-PCB connector that won’t work with the Telex transmitter. It’s also 75 ohms and I suspect the original is 50 (although I’m not actually certain of that).

@awjt, yes, I’ve been trawling the net a fair bit. The problem is mostly that this thing doesn’t use any modern connector, it’s using an antique UHF connector (it looks kinda like the termination connectors we used for 10b5 etherhose, if you remember back that far, only without the center shield bit.) The radio remote control guys have been very helpful, but again they are using tools and software that I don’t have.

BUT I FOUND ONE right here! Crow River Audio AN007. It’s not cheap, but it’s not blindingly expensive, either.
