power antena ?

[decavo]

broke the power ant off tired of hearing the motor whirl and do nothing so i took it out thinking that i could go to pep boys or the zone buy a cheap regular antena but the connector is not the same ?? any suggestions It is a stock radio I dont want to pull it out I only use it to power a sirius sat but now the sat radio had static in it with no ant at all .. any suggestions would be good .. thanks in advance

If I recall this correctly, the 91 & 92 power antenna is a little different? I don't think I could replace the antenna rod and Plastic drive shaft on my 91.

I could be wrong, but pretty sure I checked into this with CDAN and the whole antenna assembly had to be replaced. $$

thanks for the info BUT i would like to do away with the power ant and just have a black stubby flex ant the coax is smaller that what i saw at the auto parts

Another option I've been looking into is a flexible whip style antenna. Not sure how much worse reception is, but I've heard that most of the reception problems are from old wiring and interference. And with the whip, it bends instead of breaks, so for me, that would be really good.

i looked at some today but the connection is to small on the stock wire to the ant I dont care about reception as the only signal i am looking to get is from my sat radio .. riding the mounains you get poor radio anyway
