  • Amplified Aerial? Vaux Vectra. 21 Sep 2003 (Forum)
    I suspect my 98 Vectra has an amplified Aerial, as I have inserted an inline modulator to the aerial cable to allow me to plug in a minidisk player and listen to it via a preset radio station, and now my radio reception is very bad. The degradation in the received signal is too great to be insertion loss due to adding in the modulator. I am assuming that the aerial receives power for the amp via the coax aerial cable, hence by adding an inline modulator the aerial is no longer receiving power and therefore not amplifying the signal.
  • Fiat flat battery 15 Jul 2001 (Forum)
    Based on this, the battery might well go flat in a week. Doing a bit of investigation he found that removing the face from the face-off radio reduced this drain to 70mA - nearer the figure we would have expected. It seems unbelieveable that the front display panel of a radio would draw 130mA. What do the usual suspects think on this one?
