Stereo reception

[txrocco at sbcglobal.net (ATS - Patrick Bureau)]

when I did this on my 16v88 (now sold to someone else) I grounded it to the
radio body (had a screw casing type really close) and it cleared up the
signal nicely.

  OK, here it is from start to finish:

  I had crappy reception to begin with.  I pulled out the 'punkt, put in the
JVC (which has worked just fine since I bought it year and a half ago).
Still have same reception issues.  Whilst installing JVC, I noticed that the
antenna cable DOES in fact have a little black wire running out of the main
cable.  I'm now assuming this is the antenna ground.  Where oh where should
this little wire be attached?  To same ground as stereo ground or elsewhere?

    humm so you removed the blaupunkt (how was the reception on that one
before
    removal?) because if reception was GOOD before the change then check
your
    wires (antenna) maybe it is loose, or the new radio is crap (defective -
yes
    this happens) one question if you have the amplified fuba (see mine
works
    just fine... not amplified, nor fuba for that matter!) did you reground
the
    antenna lead to the radio properly (this will affect your reception.)?
