Telescopic Aerials, which I presume are what you mean, are usually replaceable, although as Hacker Radios haven't been made for over 40 years, a suitable replacement would have to be found elsewhere. Other forum members will almost certainly know of a suitable one.

Bring back Maplin! They used to do one that just fitted. It didn't have the elbow joint in it but was otherwise just right. Never found one anywhere else.

Have a look here:

Probably doesn't contain a *precise* replacement but I've used antennas from this pack on various radios with great success over the years.
