Re: How Many?
mine has one also. The PO added one in the cowl but I ditched it and bought a new plug for the windshield and works fine.

Re: How Many?
All of mine do, it was pretty much standard for many years. I think it started in 78, but not sure

Re: How Many?
You are prolly asking because of the crapy FM-RADIO reception
and static AM-RADIO reception ...?? Windshield antenna's (antenni ?) are impractical for areas with large hills or mountains to block and deflect AM - FM Radio signals . The alternative is to install an exterior telescoping antenna . The improved radio reception is marginal for FM , but you will notice better results for AM - Radio signals . There is also another alternative that requires no cutting of antenna mounting holes in the truck body ... but it involves the use of fruit and / or vegetibles .... I owned a junker Monte Carlo that had a fabulous sound system in it but the radio reception simply sucked . The body style prevented installing an external antenna without having to cut a hole thru double metal. So i simply unplugged the windshield antena from the radio, plugged in an old broken telescoping antenna and skewered a fresh potatoe on the antenna stub ! The reception was even stronger than any external antenna would have provided !!! |
