    Here's a good one for you all. Monday, mt satellite radio comes up with "antenna not found", so I figure it finally died. I had a new radio overnighted to be delivered today. I installed the new one and new antenna tonight. Took the headliner down, ran it behind trim and under the dash, toook about an hour. I fired up the new radio and it said "antenna not found". Tech support had me hook up the old antenna and the damn thing worked just fine. FML

    mine just did the same thing last week. the antenna's are not waterproof! i tore it all out of my truck and smashed the shit out of the antenna to see what was inside the lil plastic housing...... everything was covered in a thick coat of rust :eek:

    no wonder i had no signal at all :annoyed:

    replaced the antenna with a new one and its working fine now

    Doing good, thanks. I had the same "antenna not found" problem, but installing a new one fixed it. :notsure:

    The guy that sold me the antenna said they usually last about 4 years.

    Just ordered another antenna. This one had better work. Now, I have spent all of the money that I saved by ordering through Amazon.
