319 - that is the exact same antenna I have used! Zero stations, I have tried with both the 12v power to it and without. It is mounted low on the windshield tho just above the dash. Ground is very good, I made a new clean one myself.
Thanks for the help guys. Didn't expect much out of that antenna but I didn't figure it was incapable of getting a single station! I will upgrade antenna, and move on.
It's a wing shaped antenna with (poor quality) two sided tape on the back. I have it connected to the back of the head unit and wire running up through the dash. I have it stuck somewhat discreetly on the inside bottom of the windshield. Sorry for vague info, been very busy at work lately...
Appreciate the wisdom AC, I'm pretty sure it's not shorted out both are brand new but they are not big. They are simple stick on the windshield antennas. Anything you would recommend to get me the local AM stations?
Hey guys, I'm on my second cucv that I've put a radio in. On both I've added a 12v powered antenna and neither have been able to pick up a single station. So what gives? Is there some sound suppressor or something that's messing the signal up, or are the antennas junk?
