I had same prob it was the antenna battery. gaffrig won't work on the antenna. Livorsi fixed mine for $75 but there is a guy on another thread who fixed his for $3 himself.

is that the antenna?

Tom,

Let us know how you do it. I talked to Ed yesterday and wanted me to send the one I have here back as well.

I am amazed that in one week we have at least 5 with failures here. It would have been nice if we were told these had batteries that would crap out after a few years because we certainly would have mounted them in a more accessable area. It's probably in the fine print somewhere.....

I'm told the new ones don't have batteries so the issue goes away.

Pat
