The cost of repairing drywall damage would depend on how much damage is done. If you were to buy the drywall it ranges from $10 to $30 a sheet. Plus if you hired someone then it would cost more for labor then it would if you did it yourself.
You can construct a simple "dipole" antenna by shaping copper wire into a "T" shape. The "T" part should be about 6 feet wide and the "pole" part should be about 8 feet long. This can be hidden, like, behind a bookcase for instance, as radio waves pass through just about any wood or glass.
You can use co axial cable to make a very effective FM antenna. Simply just strip back the insulation and then separate the two parts of the cable. This will make a very good dipole antenna.
1). If it's getting any FM stations, then the radio is OK.2). If it's getting the strong (nearby) stations but not the weak (far away) ones,then check the car's FM antenna, the connection between the antenna and thecable, the condition of the cable from the antenna to the radio, and the connectionbetween the cable and the radio.
it's an older FM radio antenna that requires an outlet
Any antenna can receive anything, but not very well unless it's the correct length for the frequency you're trying to receive. Yes, this antenna will work well so you will not need a special FM only antenna.
You should check your car's radio connection and make sure the antenna isn't broken or bended.
Sure you can use it. The question is: How effective will it be ? In the real world, the answer is: If it's a choice between an indoor FM antenna and the TV antenna on the roof, then you'll be very satisfied using the roof-mounted TV antenna for FM. Technically, the parts ('sticks') on the TV antenna are not the right lengths for FM, so the TV antenna won't be very efficient for FM reception. BUT ... it'll be a darn sight better than a piece of wire downstairs inside the house. If you live in a rural area, you'll start picking up the distant FM stations that you couldn't quite hear before. If you live in or near a big city with lots of FM stations, you just might start picking up so many that the dial of your radio is crowded, and you have troubled separating out the one you want. If that happens, you may need to get back offof the TV antenna, just because it's working TOO well for your FM radio.
If the player enables radio it should use either an in built antenna of use the earphones as an antenna. Nothing more to buy or build.

Two things to check. Did it lose the ground and is the antenna disconnected?
If your PC has a separate radio antenna, the answer is yes.
i think our head set acted as antenna..

The antenna or the cable between it and the radio probably has a short to the body of the van.

It is possible to receive AM signals without an antenna, FM signals, however, require an antenna to be received. The standard FM antenna is around 72 inches for the quarter wave length at the middle of the FM band. Assuming the radio is not broken, try checking to see if the antenna has become disconnected or broken. You can remove an old working antenna from another vehicle and plug it into the antenna jack of your radio to see if the signal comes through. Older vehicles all use the same type of jack. Newer and some imports use a smaller jack. You can get an adapter from an auto parts store or off the internet (eBay).

Nope, FM radio on phones doesn't use any data plan or money. If it says the headphones work as an antenna, it's free. FM radio would just connect to a radio station. AT&T Radio does need a data plan and will cost you money.
