you will need to figure out how to add a new plug on. But it's free and works.

You can buy an antenna plug end replacement at any electronics store.

Used to be Radio Shack.

When you put the new plug on, you will find that the center conductor on the antenna coax is very thin.

I had to put a new plug end on mine (any electronics or car stereo shop will have one) and was expecting the center wire to be similar to coax I've worked with in the past, which is TV coax. The center wire on that is pretty heavy. Not so with this. It's finer than a human hair.

It's doable once you understand what you are working with, but I had to cut a couple inches off (peel the shielding and strip the center insulation), thinking that the center wire was gone, but it was just really thin.

Yeah, it's tough to establish a solid contact with that wire. I need to go back in and redo mine - I've again lost radio reception, although I mostly just stream talk radio stations on iHeart Radio through my bluetooth head unit.

Random question. On a good booster, can I test conductivity from the male tip of the antenna jack to the radio through to the male tip on the booster connection to the windshield?

I did this test on the replacement unit I purchased and saw no connectivity. I thought maybe this was because of the electronics inside the booster.
