The moment that happen, what were you doing??? How you put a hole on the antenna? It might be that, but i'm not sure. If it's antenna's problem anyway, then you should replace the receiver. But on the other hand, is stupid have 1 metre range. Are you sure? It sounds suspicious

He could of tripped it over and scagged the antenna
You can get some more wire and solder it to the reciever make sure its the same length as the standard one tho
Or try patching up the "hole" by solder and fuse the strands back together < that method depends how much is missing on the strands off course...
