Hi everyone. I was hoping maybe someone here could help me. Over the last 3 months I've bought 2 new Speaker Docks for my home and all I'm getting over and over is ''No Antenna''. I had a Sirius boombox for 7 years sitting in the same spot with the antenna pointing in the same direction with hardly a problem. What gives? I've moved the Speaker Dock [and antenna] all over the place with the same results.
 
Not really trying to be facetious, but "is the antenna plugged in at the back of the box?" I have one of those, and it's not always obvious.
 
For whatever reason, it started sort of working again this morning while I was getting the SID no. It will stay on....then ''No Antenna''. When I change channels, it cuts off and then comes back on when I change channels again. Any thoughts?
 
Most likely a bad connection at the antenna or at the boombox or between the boombox and the receiver. Could also be a damaged antenna cable from a cat/dog bite or a kink in the cable. The antenna cable is a small coax and somewhat fragile.
