Step 4Finished product a little bit fatter

Finished product a little bit fatter
After the modifications I was able to get some of the antenna to snap back together. It doesn't look perfect but you could glue it back together. You can see In the picture that the mast is a little fatter now.

Before the mod I had one bar for reception, now I have two bars very consistently.

What's a PCB and why is this the problem. I don't understand the principle here. Also, I would suggest that you rotate the photo on step 4 to vertical. Finally, you go to all this work to go from one bar to two? What is the max number of bars possible? Five?

A PCB is a Printed Circuit Board (the green thing in the picture for step two). I also do not know how that is a problem. If it's there, the designers put it there for a reason.

You seem to indicate that the PCB is the problem: "Take the PCB and the wires out of the shell. The green PCB is the flaw! We must remove it." I figured you knew what it did.
