nearly forgot, get an aerial, measure it, measure a piece of wire exactly half the length of the aerial and mark, add 10mm and cut, strip one end back to the 10mm mark. visit a model shop and find a piece of plastic or fibreglass tube that will fit in the bottom of a broken aerial, thread the wire into it and insert into the broken off bit of aerial, glue in place, and glue a little toy or ping pong ball to the top, works a treat, my daughters has a little rabbit on top, my sons a little car, range is still good.
