Hi Alan
the normal ariel is a plastic sqaure box about the size of a cigarette box, but on mine
i fitted a slightly smaller unit with a built in amplifier,
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/SMA-RP-SMA-GPS-Antenna-3-meter-3m-3-0m-Cable-BRAND-NEW-FULL-WARRANTY-/321117484231?pt=UK_In_Car_Technology&hash=item4ac417f4c7#ht_2099wt_1132
one of these from ebay is a cheap way to check if it is a ariel problem or not,
regards
ivor

Hi David.
The aerial Sky force sent me was a small black box about 2.5"x2" internally mounted on the top of the instrument panel.
Thanks will let you know if i need one.
I would like to find just where my wire goes to.?
Alan.
Don,t happen to have a spare trigger coil.
