Roady 2 Technical Problem

I saw a few threads below about a power cord problem, but I'm having an antenna cord issue.

Once a day or once every couple of days while driving, the audio will suddenly cut out, the mini FM modulator will stop broadcasting, and the display will read "ANTENNA."

I unplug the cord and plug it back in, and then it's good to go. It usually happens after having played around with the radio surfing through stations, etc.

I'm assuming it is a bad contact between the antenna cord and the radio, but the little connector seems nice and tight, and the little pin and the little hole in the connectors seem fine too. I have sprayed some contact cleaner spray in there to clean out dirt, but it still happens occasionally.

It's not a huge problem, being I just unplug it and plug it back in, and usually it just happens once a day, but it is a bit annoying.

Anyone have this problem? Any advice?<P ID="signature">______________
