I have one of those Radio Shack powered antennas - the one that looks like a flying saucer on a pedestal...with rabbit ears. I have not been too fond of powered antennas, having used Terks in the past, but yesterday I decided on a hecksperiment. I matched it up with a power supply and...

What this world needs is a good, solid-state capacitor.

The crack in the board tells me it's under tension. Consult an expert.
