What you may want to try is replacing it with a back cover from another set any brand with a loop antenna wound on it. Or a ferrite loop stick. Isn't very critical I would think that 40 turns or so of 28 to 35Ga wire. A secondary could be wound to be used to connect an outside aerial. About 10-15 percent of the primary, 4-6 turns. This will make it possible to connect the antenna with out being concerned about grounding and shock hazard if this set is a transformerless job.

figure out what all those squiggly meant.
