Default 1932 Ford Radio

I am fitting a 1932 Grisby & Grunow radio to my 1932 Coupe and I would like to know what sort of cable I should use to connect the under board running board aerial to the valve box which has a small single bolt underneath the floor of the car.

Ian,use a shielded type aerial cable which is available at your local electronics store in whatever length you require. Ask for aerial co-axial cable. The shielded outer casing has to be twisted at the end and have an eyelet terminal soldered on to it and then the eyelet connects to the radio case under a screw. The center conductor goes into the aerial terminal on the radio. Regards, Kevin.
