Antenna in the cord???

The cord needs only to be plugged in for charging purposes or to use the traffic notification feature. Otherwise unplug from cord carry it around using the gps internal battery as power source. Hope this helps.

I used a long coaxial cable that I had left over from a previous cable installation. The cable is NOT included with the antenna.

the antenna screws onto the base. I don't think the screw comes out of the base, but i could be wrong. A call to a body shop might be a good place to start?

Because the antenna has an adapter for coaxial (75 ohm) cable, one thought would be to hook up to the inside wire of the coax and ignore the sheath. Otherwise, use the 300 ohm (flat) antenna wire and hook up to one side. Best of luck!

The USB plug in the back is not for an antenna. It's for viewing pictures or MP3 sound from a USB stick.

You should ground it. There is a grounding kit available from the manufacturer, but you can do it yourself. Another option is moving the antenna down. Mine is only 7 feet off the ground and it works perfectly. You may not need to have it up so high. Also consider an inline coax surge protector.

You need to plug it in a good distance away from the radio, so that the cord is stretched out. That will improve reception, as it did on mine.

No. And a side note, Comcast disconnected that room's cable jack without notifying me. I discovered that as well. No biggie on the antenna. The primary goal has been overwhelming achieved. Thanks!

Yes, the antenna is a length of wire that comes out of the back of the unit.

Ah, crap I'm too late and the answer is gone...um... so does it include it's own cable and what kind will I need? I'm looking at this "RG6 Premium Solid Copper Quad-shield Coaxial Cable" does anyone know if that's the right kind for this antenna?

My husband put it together in the other room. He said for best reception near the TV was the best. I don't recall the length of the cord but it was only a few feet away from the window. Sorry I cannot be anymore help. He did say that he did not get anymore channels then he does already from the TV.

Do yourself a big favor and visit the newertech website, and contact them. The thing worked great up until I upgraded to 10.9.5 and it was that very moment I needed a patch for the antenna to work. They sent a patch to me via email. They may have all patches on their site now. Either way, it's best to contact them before buying.

As you can see the antenna is a telescoping rod. I took it to a town 10 miles north of the station and had trouble pulling in my HD channel. So it's not so hot when it comes to sensitivity. (Selectivity is marvelous, since it's "all or nothing" with HD radio.)

It has a receptacle for an antenna to plug into, but not a separate antenna as I recall.

thank you for your response- I found a discussion on yahoo yesterday that explained the antenna pretty well- basically that the so called "HD antenna the retailers are selling is hype and not really needed .

ahhh ... yes, there is a little screw on antenna ... probably what the other person said, BCN. I went with the antenna in my attic

As you view the receiver's component side toward you and the connector facing down, to your far lower left there is a coil and to the lower left of the coil is a small hole where the antenna is installed(soldered). I hope this helped. George Feder
