Grundig aerials - UK Vintage Radio Repair and Restoration Discussion Forum

Just acquired a Yacht Boy 210 - needs a really good clean and a few things sorting.

One of them is the aerial as the extra few SW sections and the tip is missing.

Does anyone know which other Grundig sets shared the same aerial with the Yacht Boy so I can look out for a donor set.

Melody, Concert Boy etc - which ones ?

Bit of investigation later and to help others looking for the larger Grundig SW aerials.

Looks like the Concert Boy 1000, Melody Boy 1000 aerials are the same as the Yacht Boy 210/210N.

The other models of Concert and Melody Boy's not likely to be the same.

Probably not as many around but Luxus Boy and Ocean Boy 210 models also appear to share a similar aerial to the Yacht Boy 210.
