zeogold: I could be wrong here, but I believe it needs straight-up replacing, which, in theory, shouldn't be nearly as expensive as $60. Most repair kits can be bought for less than $20, depending on what type of antenna you have.
timppu: Odd, earlier when I tried to find replacement antennas, I couldn't find easily anything and they were too expensive. But now what I search, I see e.g. in UK for £3.49... but unfortunately the postage to EU is an additional £20, grrrrr! Maybe I earlier searched only within Finland, and here they are making you pay through your nose. I'd rather just go to some store and buy it there, in order not to have to pay such postage prices.
What do you mean the receiving quality won't be as good if I fix it myself? Is there something specific to antennas where just e.g. soldering the pieces back together won't work as well?
You don't have pick'n'pulls in Finland? Serious question as you can usually visit a scrapyard, pull the part you need off, and save money that way :)
