I have a radio in a 34 Paeton and there is a place to put a key into it, is that for to turn the radio on? I do not have a key that will work in the key slot. Any ideas where to get a key as well for it

Pretty much just a routine job for a good locksmith.

I have another question about the radio in the 34. Where is the radio antena and does the key always have to be in the radio key slot for it to work or can it just be turned on with the key and the radio will work and then the key removed. I am having a locksmith look at getting a key made for it so was wonder how it all works.

thanks

In closed cars the antenna is in the roof. The wire mesh that supports the batting and fabrikoid outer layer is the antenna. All 11th series closed cars were factory-wired for radio. In open cars the antenna mounts below the running board.

Sorry, can't help with the key question.
