I'm hoping that this is the correct place to ask this question. Anyone here collect or use any of the vintage automotive FM converters? I'm looking for someone who would have this specific model, the Realistic model 12-1350B. The reason I'm asking is that I bought one last year, but the main antenna cable had been cut out. I was able to install another, but I still have a loose connection inside and I need to know where it goes. The converter works some what but I think it needs this connection fixed so it works right. If anyone has one could you please post photos of the insides?
