Can the supplied antenna be removed, and an external antenna attached? If so, what sort of connector is on this to attach the antenna to?

Yes, the antenna can be removed. The unit has a standard female BNC connector on the back. Make sure whatever external antenna you use is cut for the frequency you're using or damage to the power output stages may result, and don't ever turn the unit on with no antenna..

John the antenna can be removed. I do not have in front of me but I think it is a bit conector.
1349874
Yes it can. On the Back of the transmitter it has a BNC connector. Make sure you use a correct external antenna and 50ohm coax cable.

The antenna uses a standard BNC connector so it could be changed out but I'd be careful as the wrong antenna could possibly damage the transmitter as some antennas are designed for receive only. I can say that the supplied ant on low power inside a house will easily transmit 1/4 mile so be careful as it is actually illegal to use due to power, but works great

The AM antenna is internal. There is a jack for an external FM antenna. A small external FM antenna may have come with it; I don't recall. If there was, I tossed it because I didn't need it to get local FM stations.

Yes the antenna is detachable. In case you are thinking of using an external antenna for a `fixed' or mobile configuration, be aware that the supplied antenna appears to be unbalanced. It has a simple threaded connection and not one of the coaxial type of connectors, PL239/259, 'N', BNC etcetera. Matching an external antenna may therefore be problematic.

you need an SMA Reverse polarity Male connector, other wise you´ll be stock with an antenna you cant use.

Antennas are not removable. I was not happy with the performance of the units and sent them back.

Do you have the connections for an external antenna? If you do, this type of antenna should help.

Yes, you can unscrew the antenna, but since the antenna cable is hard-wired, no connector on the antenna base, you cannot put away the antenna.

The antenna should unscrew. You may need to use a pair of pliers to loosen it. Try wrapping a rag around the new one so you don't damage it with the pliers teeth. Only snug it. Don't crank on it because you could strip the threads out.

No it uses a different connector. It's not possible to use the antenna that way.

There is no connector for an external antenna. The unit runs quite warm ehen it's in use ans when charging.

I don't think you can, there is nowhere to attach it. I don't think you would need a different antenna the stock one works great, pulls in stations from all over the country

This is only an antenna with no electronics, such as an amplifier, so logically it should replace any other antenna. It has a coax connector. I do not have any first-hand knowledge or information about using it on any other unit.

No, in fact the way the antenna is connected is quite flimsy. I like to take things apart and when I did so to my receiver I saw that the antenna was connected to the circuit board by a very short wire, so short that even rotating the antenna put stress on it. I believe the connection to the wifi module was MCX. If you are hacking inclined, you could take it apart, remove the antenna and route in your own MCX connected antenna.Honestly, this thing is long in the tooth. There are better devices out there now.

It has a built in external antenna. It does not have external attachment for any extra antenna you may want to attach. Hope that answers your question.

Sadly no external antenna connection. Has: line in, line out, headphones jack and external power. Has built in battery charger for MmH batteries. The sound is very good, AM reception is fair and FM is good. Hooking a wire about 36 to the telescoping FM antenna work very well.

Yes and you can use any antenna you want that is equipped with the standard connector. The included antennas are good enough to put out/receive a powerful signal so there shouldn't be a need to replace them.

I have not tried connecting it to an external antenna. Mine is connected to a Cradlepoint wireless router.
