Review on πŸ“‘ E-outstanding 62.5cm Universal Antenna: Reliable 4-Section Telescopic Stainless Steel Replacement for AM FM Radio TV by Mike Wallace

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Grundig G5 will do with some modifications.

Bought this to replace a broken antenna on my Grundig G5 short wave radio. To mount it on the G5, you have to unscrew the supplied base piece from the old antenna and replace it with that of the replacement device - otherwise the diameters won't match and the antenna will dangle too much. If your antenna somehow gets completely lost and you don't have this part, you can measure the diameter of the hole and look for an accurate fit. It's a bit shorter than the old antenna, but I didn't notice a huge size. Despite the difference in quality, it still picks up commercial radio (AM/FM) well, as well as louder SW radio stations. I really can't complain about how cheap they are!

Pros
  • Easy to assemble and reusable replacement part for radio, TV, car antennas, telephone antennas etc.
Cons
  • Slightly dented
