Tecsun PL-398bt antenna
Telescopic antenna for the Tecsun PL-398BT radio.
The PL-398BT replacement antenna can easily be replaced without disassembling the receiver. The antenna comes with the original swivel mount. The swivel mount contains pressure washers to ensure good conductivity from the antenna to the brass mounting lug, so replacing the entire assembly is recommended and also the most straightforward. Simply remove the single black screw in the top right hand corner of the rear panel of the radio, the one located right below the antenna, and gently remove the antenna to be replaced. Then insert the new antenna and rotate it until the mounting hole is visible through the rear of the case and insert the mounting screw.
