I have a SkyFi2 and it has been working fine for about 4 months. Starting
about 2/3 weeks ago, it started to loose the signal. I'm getting "loading"
or "no signal". It happens randomly and on the open road. One day the same
stretch of road will be ok, the next "no signal". The antenna is mounted at
the front windshield with the wire into the window seal and then through the
dashboard (Circuit City installation). They suggested it could be the
antenna and for $30 I could buy a new one. Does anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks,
Russell

Try a new antenna with a temporary installation. If it doesn't work,
take it back.

Make sure the radio is firmly in the cradle. Reseat it and see if that
solves the problem.
