so i bought a satelite radio receive off ebay, a delphi roady2. it came just now and i found that the pin inside the antenna connection on the receiver is broken off. is this fixable? if i open it up would it be an easy job to take out the old plug and solder a new one in?

Sounds feasible to me. Just make sure you know how to use a soldering iron, or you could end up messing it up further.

i'm not too concerned about hurtint it further, it's useless as-in. Do you mean it sounds feasible to put a ssmall piece of wire in there, or to find a replacement plug?
