I have a portable stereo that I use at work (Panasonic DS20 if it makes a difference) and I want to improve the FM reception (the AM is hopelessly hashed from the EM leakage from my monitor). It has a standard factory telescoping whip antenna, and I've made the rounds of the local stereo stores asking for some way of connecting an aftermarket antenna to the whip antenna mounting (it's removable). No one has a clue how to do this. My question is, how is the mounting for a whip antenna different than the standard antenna connector on any stereo receiver? Is there any way to bridge the current antenna mount without opening up the stereo to bypass the antenna circuit?
