Adjust AM Radio ANTENNA - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

**hooverfish** · 09-26-2019, 08:20 PM

Got an AM radio that had an interesting sticker on it that tells how to adjust the antenna.
There is a screw (pic 3) behind the tuning knob that is used to fine tune the antenna.
I tried it on my truck and it actually helped a little bit.
You remove the right knob, the dummy chrome wheel and nut & cup, to get to the screw.
Most radios have the letters "ADJ ANT" molded into the chrome face plate next to the screw (see picture 2).

I believe the sticker was originally on the front of the radio, stuck to the buttons, thus the instruction to clean glue with alcohol only.
Think 99% of these stickers did not survive when truck was delivered to new owner.
