Default Re: Philips BX281U20 valve radio

Hi guys
can anyone tell me what and how this antenna clip works on the pic you will see it says cap antenna and this is screwed to the inside of the cabinet as shown in the picture. Now it is supposed to have a wire attached. Now what I cannot work out is it does not connect to anything in the cabinet!!
The foil is beside it but theres no evidence of it being connected to the foil at all. I did move clip so it was touching the foil but there's no continuity?

But the foil has a ohm reading of 0.50 ohms not sure how that is?

Thanks
