Antenna Loose I have KOSS Boombox... like-new only slightly used. Went to tighten the antenna and think the screw is stripped as it will not grab. Where can I get another screw as this one is severely itty-***** small. Aldo batteries do not appear to be staying in compartment tightly.. how can this b adjusted?

Do you think any of these would work?

Many boombox antennas are attached by a small screw through the pivot point. This is usually a #1 Phillips screw. Some do not have a swiveling antenna; for these you have to remove the back of the case to get at the attachment screw. Keep the screw; it's guaranteed to fit when you attach the new antenna.

The hard part is finding a replacement. If you have the pivoting/swiveling antenna, the Radio Shack 28" Replacement Telescoping Antenna 270-1405 ($5.99 online) will probably work. You might even be able to use it for a non-pivoting antenna that telescopes into the inside of the case.

Good work

any old rabbit ear antenna will do, there's a small screw at base of the antenna un-loosen it and replace it with any antenna.

Hi, The antenna can be replace ,in which you have to open the back cover of the appliance and you get the antenna from an electronic shop

After dissassembling my subxr2, I have come to the conclusion that the issue with my antenna not being detected is in the female contact of the antenna's plug, not with the connector in the box (as I expected to find). I have not yet verified this by trying a new antenna. Here is how to dissassemble the box in any case.

Very carefully, with a small very flat screwdriver, remove the front grille of the unit. There are 8 additional screws set in deep holes that need to be removed. Once done, the front panel will pop right off.

The inside of the case is a mess of wires. You do not need to disconnect them if you do not want to.

Pry the grill off the bottom of the box. Remove the 4 screws that hold in the speaker. This will allow you to move the speaker that is in the main body out of the way.

The antenna jack is _not_ a part of the circuit board. If you look into the box, you will see a rectangular cut-out in the edge of the circuit board. There is a wire with a silver connector that is held in place by 2 screws. Remove those screws and you are now holding the antenna jack.

Unplug the harness to the ant.It will not go off,until you replace the whole ant.mass.The gear(plastic)are stripped out,and the motor can not sense that the any.is moving.

send it to the suplier

any antenna will work .undo the screw ,slide it out and replace from the swivel point.radio shack has them

Most boomboxes use Screw on antennas (either the antenna itself is threaded or has one screw in a plate at the base). You can buy a replacement at Radioshack for about $5.
