Antenna wire breaks off, soldering Aluminum. near impossible

Video Asylum

TVs, VCRs, DVD players, Home Theater systems and more.

Jeez i guess i am hopeless. Soldering the ground wire to the antenna? no way. The aluminum wire is solder adverse. the solder will not even go near the Al wire!!
Jeez.
I have the wire to the TV just stuck into a mental grill and get 98% reception on most channels, just a few are too low (40%) Or I would just forget the antenna.
I hate to spend money for a new antenna just for one damn broken wire.
I do not waste $$ on cable or dish.
