The installed equipment for receiving radio waves must be correctly connected to the head unit. The sensitivity of the radio receiver and the quality of playback depend on the correct installation. When driving, vibration occurs in the car antenna plug in the mounting socket.
If the installation is loose, interruptions in signal reception occur, which lead to failures in radio reception or the appearance of noise or interference.
Outdoor
To install an external antenna, fix it through a hole or with a magnet. The cable from the magnetically supported equipment is routed into the interior through the door seals. Because of this, the insulation of the cord is frayed, which leads to interference. In addition, a deformed seal allows water to enter the vehicle interior.
To install the antenna on the roof, you need to drill a mounting hole and a channel for introducing the wiring harness into the cabin. The connecting cable must be shielded with a design resistance of 75 Ohms. To place the equipment on the roof, you will need to remove some of the pads located on the racks, and then move the one-piece molded headliner a little. The element is removed carefully, since the deformation will be visible on the flat surface of the panel.
After drilling holes, it is necessary to apply a protective mastic, which will reduce the risk of corrosion. The antenna housing is mounted on the roof through a rubber gasket, additionally lubricated with sealant for external use.
This method reduces the amount of water entering the car interior.
The signal cable is attached to the active element through a set of plates made of copper and fluoroplastic.

In-car active car antenna. Selection and installation.
Antenna Blaupunkt AR G 01-E
After the standard antenna on the Daewoo Nexia stopped moving completely on its own, and very annoying noises and crackling appeared during reception, and the sensitivity noticeably decreased, I no longer wanted to listen to the radio. But after some time, when the repertoire on disks and flash drives set my teeth on edge, I wanted to listen to the latest news, and the chatter of presenters, and even just wanted pop music, I realized that a good car antenna
simply necessary.
In this article I will describe the problems and criteria for choosing an antenna for a car.
, and I’ll also show you step-by-step and with photographs how
the Blaupunkt AR G 01-E
car antenna .
- How to connect an antenna to a car radio video
So, first the agony of choice. I would like an antenna for my car
and caught well, and was not very expensive, and looked decent.
After N-th amount of time spent thinking and making inquiries on the Internet, I realized that an active interior car antenna
would be the best choice for me.
Pros: does not rust, does not wear out, does not interfere with aerodynamics, does not attract vandals and villains.
Disadvantages: power is required, sensitivity changes noticeably depending on the direction to the signal source and the impossibility of reuse (stick it once - EVERYTHING).
Previously, on the VAZ 2108,
a Bosch car antenna
glued to my windshield , which worked in tandem with a Pioneer car radio; I was quite pleased with the sensitivity and sound quality.
But, as luck would have it,
I didn’t find “Triad” in Bosch stores, I didn’t even consider “
Triad
”
Blaupunkt
” worth
800
caught my eye .
Having read the meager information on the box and in the instructions, I paid at the checkout and went to another store in the same building to buy a tool, where, when looking at the display cases, at the very bottom I saw a painfully familiar box, the same color with the same inscriptions, only on the label was it says 585 rubles.
Remembering my rights, according to the law “On the Protection of Consumer Rights,” I quite quickly and without clarifying any relations returned my purchase, and in this store, for the same amount, I bought both the antenna and the socket head I needed.
Installing a car antenna.
I repeat once again: we will install an in-cabin active antenna “ Blaupunkt Fan Line A-R G 01-E
." into the Daewoo Nexia N-100 car. But I want to add that installing this or another antenna of a similar design, say, in a front-wheel drive VAZ or another car, will not differ very much. Since the antenna is glued, then, like a sapper, there is no room for error, just as, in principle, there is nothing extremely complicated. First, carefully study the instructions and consider the completeness.
Step-by-step instructions for installation inside the cabin
Installation depends on the configuration of the selected model, but the general principles are practically no different. All features will be additionally indicated by the manufacturer.
- Degrease the antenna installation area with an alcohol wipe or other product.
- We place the triangle included with the device at the installation site, which facilitates correct positioning of the antenna.
- In the phases of the triangle, install the mounting disk and remove the triangle.
- Glue orientation strips that will help you correctly position the receiving parts of the antenna.
- The signal receiving antennae are installed on the pin of the mounting disk by gradually peeling off the film and fixing it in accordance with the reference stripes, after which they can be immediately removed.
- To lay the cable, remove the side trim of the car.
- We secure the wires using zip ties to the car's standard wiring or to the glass washer hose.
- For the convenience of further installation, it is necessary to dismantle the glove compartment of the car.
- We remove the radio from the socket to gain access to the connectors and wires.
- The blue power wire from the ISO connector connects to the power wire of the antenna amplifier.
- We connect the wire responsible for sending the signal to the corresponding connector on the rear panel of the head unit.
- The quality of work performed and signal reception are checked.
- All wires are neatly placed in the landing window of the radio.
- The radio is installed in place and fixed.
- The glove compartment and the removed lining are mounted back.
Choosing a location
Active antennas have a compact design and are attached using a special adhesive mounting pad or double-sided tape. Therefore, you can choose any installation location inside the cabin. Most often, preference is given to the windshield near the front passenger seat. This is due to its location near the radio and convenient installation of cables into the car's trim.
Placing on the roof has an advantage in signal reception, but is more difficult. Oxidation of metal parts and deterioration in reception quality are also possible.
The antenna instructions say otherwise
The instructions for this Bosch active antenna say differently. According to the instructions, the antennae and the antenna body itself must be installed from the edge of the car body at least 6 centimeters. But I did it almost closely, and I didn’t notice any deterioration, everything works great. I wish you good luck too!
Installing or replacing the player requires connecting various cables that ensure the operation of the car multimedia system. When installing audio equipment yourself, the user needs to know how to connect the antenna to the radio. Erroneous actions lead to incorrect operation of the radio, as well as failure of electronic components or fuses.
Before connecting the antenna to the car radio, you need to find out the type and design features of the equipment used. Products for receiving radio signals or other waves may have a built-in amplifier that connects to the vehicle’s on-board network. A special filter is installed in the design of standard equipment to remove background noise and improve the quality of received signals. The device is located under the interior trim and has additional power from the vehicle battery.
On vehicles that have standard equipment or preparation for placing an acoustic system, the choice of antenna is made by the manufacturer. The vehicle owner may remove the existing product or not use it to receive radio signals. Additional equipment is installed when using the head unit with a television receiver or navigation module. Additionally, modification or replacement of the existing antenna will be required when placing special CB radio stations, which are used by drivers of heavy trucks.
Torn off the antenna antenna
He took and tore off these antennae. Moreover, I recently had a tint done, and I decided to clean up the appearance of the car. Without the antennae, the Bosch active antenna also worked fine. But later it turned out that the selectivity of radio station settings worsened. And those waves that the radio tape recorder had previously caught without problems with its antennae, now it let them pass by.
Therefore, I decided to replace the torn antennae. But that was not the case, I couldn’t find where to solder these antennae, I couldn’t figure it out right away. After a short search on the World Wide Web, I found where to attach them.
Bosch Autofun Pro active antenna review: best reception!
This high-sensitivity car interior antenna is mounted on the inside of the car window and provides excellent signal reception in the AM/FM range. In this article, we will understand the components of the antenna and its installation.
Equipment
The delivery set includes the main antenna module, which will be discussed later, a plastic casing consisting of three parts, a set of restrictive and fixing stickers, a set of screws and clamps, a radio receiving element, a wet wipe and a special grounding gel.
Design and installation
The design of the antenna allows it to be installed at the top of the inside of the windshield or in its corner. The choice depends on the user's preferences and the possibility of installation, which may, for example, be hampered by the rear view mirror.
GPS antenna
The GPS antenna is connected to the car radio with navigator in the same way as another receiving device. First you need to remove the multimedia system to get to the back wall and the antenna socket. Then the dashboard trims are removed to route the receiver cable.
If screw terminals located on the back wall of the device are used for connection, then you should strip the ends of the wires, connect the wires, insert them and tighten the fastening screws securely. When using a snap connector, be sure to firmly insert it into the appropriate slot until it clicks into place. After connection, all removed parts are put back in place.
If the GPS antenna device is connected correctly, the navigation system should immediately determine the location. Otherwise, you should check that the GPS receiver for the car radio is installed correctly. It should not be blocked by metal objects that will make it difficult to receive a signal from the satellite.

Settings
After connecting the antenna to the radio, you only need to search for the frequencies of radio stations or television channels that are recorded in the memory of the head unit. The tuning must be done only when using radio stations operating in the CB range. The receiving equipment is mounted on the roof of the car or cab using a magnet or nut, ensuring efficient signal reception. Placing the antenna on the wing or inside the bumper reduces the signal reception distance by 1.5-2 times.

Some cars have holes for mounting the pin of a conventional passive antenna on the roof or fender, closed with a plastic or rubber plug.
Machines that require installation of acoustic equipment have standard harnesses.
On some cars, you will have to install an additional cable connecting the antenna output to the radio. The cord is pulled under the interior decoration elements and under the carpet laid on the floor. After this, you need to install the antenna, which is secured with a standard nut.
Car antenna Triad
This antenna model is produced in Russia by NPF Triada. Meeting international standards, Triad antennas are fully adapted to signal reception in Russian conditions.
The fact is that imported antennas are often not designed to operate (receive) MV 1-3, and, accordingly, the reception of these channels leaves much to be desired.
The Triad brand is represented on the market with 5 types of car antennas. Let's focus on the interior car antenna Triad - 610 Standart. This model easily becomes on par with the types of car antennas: Pioneer, Prologi.
Properties of the Triad car antenna that interest the consumer:
- built-in amplifier with correction to optimize reception of MF and UHF;
- to reduce interference from the car's ignition system, a double filter is built in to power the antenna;
- two additional operating modes: “city” - to reduce the level of industrial interference within the city, and “turbo” - to strengthen the signal, very useful for drivers on long trips outside the city.
The Triad - 610 Standart antenna is equipped with a TV+Radio coupler, which allows you to enjoy not only high-quality reception of TV signals, but also transmit a radio signal to the car radio. Some Triad models are equipped with additional external receiving elements.

The active antenna has a built-in power amplifier and needs to be connected to a power source. Therefore, it is a little more difficult to install than usual. But if the car is often used outside the city, where the signal from radio stations is weak, then it is irreplaceable. How to connect an active antenna to a car radio?
Reception, reception, as you can hear: we independently connect and configure the CB radio station in the car
Despite the weather disasters, summer still came into its own this year, and many easy-going motor tourists rushed to long routes - some to the south, and some to the more curious and remote corners of vast Russia. At the height of the travel season, car owners traditionally have an increased interest in CB radio stations operating on the “truck drivers channel”, which can be useful on long journeys. For those who want to purchase and install a walkie-talkie on their own - our instructions!
Connecting the radio to power
The following guide to installing a CB radio in a car concerns not those who use radio communications daily and professionally, but those who need it for occasional use, mainly on long trips. In this case, most drivers will prefer not to mount the radio permanently in the car, spoiling the interior and provoking parking thieves, but will want to attach it temporarily in a suitable place: between the seats, between the seat and the side pillar, or in a tray for small items under the dashboard, as is done, for example, in the photo of the Chevrolet Lachetti:
We've installed a walkie-talkie - connect power to it! There is an opinion that the radio station in the car must be connected with a separate wiring from the battery, but this solution is more suitable for daily use. In our case of occasional use, this is completely unnecessary - it is much more convenient to take power from the cigarette lighter connector. This is the simplest, fastest, and at the same time, we especially emphasize, a completely correct connection. Not a hacky compromise, as some people think, but meeting all the requirements - both in terms of the power unit and in terms of the direct operation of the radio station on the air.
This connection is absolutely safe for electrical wiring and can be completed in half an hour. And most importantly, it is optimal in the case of a new car and harmful warranty providers who are just looking for a reason to refuse a warranty for far-fetched reasons.
For a radio station with an output power of 4-5 watts, the maximum current consumption does not exceed 2-3 amperes, and for a radio station with a power of 8-10 watts - less than 5 amperes, which is at least two to three times less than the current of the fuse protecting the cigarette lighter connector.
To connect the radio to the cigarette lighter, we extend the two power wires coming out of the radio - black and red - by soldering or twisting to a length of 1-2 meters (depending on the intended installation location of the device). At the end of the attached wire we solder (the center is plus, the side contacts are minus) a standard male connector into the cigarette lighter, which is sold in every car store.
