Re: Car antenna reception

Hey aaronoxf!
qldit is right as here in NY the "pay radio" stations that are on FM band, have stopped building new antenna in the rule areas. As they assume they have gotten all the "new customers" they are gonna get so why spend more for less is there thinking.

so I brought a new antenna/aerial but the problem is still there, my question is, is this just a problem with the power of my aerial or is its some wiring somewhere or do you think it could simply that I travel through black spots all the time????
I'll assume the purchase was from a reputable car audio place? Ha made myself laugh as can't use both those words together after the stuff I've seen. If you did pay someone to do this then go back and ask for more help with it as the problem is still there.
You replaced the radio and the antenna but did you replace the line that goes between them both? Also does the radio have a "good" source for ground? Are all the connections done properly, no lose wires? This is usually the source of the problems that I've seen as I've seen many. If you spliced the wires (witch is OK) they still need to be "clean" connections an proper too.
Hope we helped you, if so let us know. qldit will have other ideals
