antenae for very vintage AM tube radios


I have collected a couple of cool old small wooden tube radios. Seems like on one of then the antenae was simply a single strand of insulated wire. Could that be? I only get 'bout one station clearly.

Awsome responses. Just what the doctor order and to think I had fear of snooty audiphiles dissing these mono crackling boxes. I'll have to find me a cardboard wind-y thing but will use a long modern speaker wire for now, I have 2 philcos one wood w/faux aligator skin and a handle, and one darker wood and vert very deco. Also from Los Angeles manufacture apparently neat light wood bodied Hoffman has stickers from LA stations many of which still are on Air. All three are bookshelf size and work.
