How to improve Zed-Bull antenna strenght?

[keysmith]

When I read a normal transponder key sometimes I need to press the READ button a few times before it reads. I get "Could Not Read Chip" or "No Transponder". I don't know why there are 2 different error messages. But I cannot read FOBS at all because they are too large to sit in the antenna hole.
From the picture below you can see that the antenna wire is tiny and wrapped around the hole. Can I used something like a copper desoldering braid to improve the antenna reception?

i think it is possible....bcoz mini-zedbull is faster than ordinary zedbull...so there has to be something to amplify the RFID strength

use magnetic wire .25mm ,try about 7 ohms resistance and then scrape away the varnish from the two ends and solder .

radio shack have that wire in a set .
