I glue the antenna to the reciever casing ALWAYS!
If you leave it loose it will eventually break off and the range of the radio is greatly reduced. Just gently fold the antenna around the side of the reciever and use a drop of supergle to hold it in place. Don't worry about having it in an aerial tube through the body, this doesn't seem to effect the range at all.
