try a 30" piece of wire as antenna
then as last resort, take it inside and setup and test
Hey all.
I had my Directed HD working fine in both Centrafuse and the independant HD Radio application. I could get RDS stations and all.
Then, all of a sudden, I get nothing but static. Although, the only thing that changed was me working with the laptop in the base of my trunk, and then moving it to the mount I made on my backboard.
The laptop (incarpc) is definitely seeing, and connecting to the Directed HD unit fine, but there is just static!
The only thing that I can think of is that all of a sudden the amplifier for the aerial (the aerial is part of my rear window - OEM Subaru design) has taken a knock? But then surely the aerial cable would act as some form of a aerial itself??
I tried disconnecting my DC-DC power supply thinking that maybe the RF noise from that was a cause - but it made no difference.
I hope someone has some ideas.
Thanks,
Jared

"Did you test it in carwings??"
Sun, Come shine my way
May healing waters bury all my pain
Wind, Carry me home
The fabric of reality is tearing apart
The piece of me that died
Will return To live again
Thanks for the good ideas.
But, I found the problem.....
It helps if you apply power to the antenna booster! ROFL!
