shawnmos Posted January 1, 2011 Report Share Posted January 1, 2011 When the antenna wire is hooked up properly the signal is no better than when nothing is hooked up. However, if I tape over the antenna wire's ground with electrical tape, so only the center rod makes contact with the radio, it gets good reception. Why??? The car is an 05 Civic with an internal window antenna. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
