I read somewhere that if one has some issues with the coverage of the receiver one can try and uncoil the antenna on this receiver which may help. My concern is that I uncoil it and then it doesn't work at all because ... it's a coil ... and it's been somewhat tuned to the relevant frequency of use. Any comments or experience with this?
Second question, if I uncoil the antenna and things get worse, I'd like to rewind it but I don't know the inside diameter of the wind. Does anyone know that diameter accurately?

The antenna is only coiled for shipment. It is designed to be uncoiled in use.
