I've lost count of the times I've done similiar things. I was once changing out a video card on my PC so I turned off the switch on the power supply. Once I got everything buttoned up, I neglected to flip the switch back on and was wonder why my pc wouldn't power on.

If you wanted to fool with it, it's really easy to make a decent FM antenna. http://cyberpoet.net/writes/web/infwiz/spant.html
