Can this be controlled by the radio's output wire for Antenna?

in short, yes. however, you will need to connect the wires coming out of the antenna unit to a relay and then wire it from relay to radio antenna wire. the relay acts as the switch for raising and lowering the mast. a gm antenna relay would work best for this unit.

Yes it can be done if you are handy and have good soldering equipment. You can contact Shakespeare for details. However, for the low cost of a new antenna, when you consider it might be needed to save your life, I would just buy a new one.

No, you can't fine tune ANY antenna without an SWR meter. And a high SWR will fry your radios final transistor, so buy a meter! It's something every CB'er needs, and they aren't very expensive. firestik.com/Tech_Docs/Setting_SWR.htm

The included external antenna works surprisingly well . I live in a remote location and have always had to modify my radio antennas. I believe the five to one tuning ratio is helpful in this regard allowing very fine tuning

There is a standard usb port on the back of the radio. Run the wire during the install and leave it.

No you can not hook the blue wire up to ground because it is a power source meaning 12 volt output so you will burn that wire out on the radio. The only way to get a better signal is to use an after market antenna booster

Mmmm the radio sistem ask you for that...but you can skip that procedure with a special conection....check somo tutorials in you tube

You can program the radio manually with the keypad. Either direct entry or scan a range of frequencies until the signal is found.

Yes it is. You can control Pioneer radio by pac swi but you should check the apropriate unit

No. It's a wire that attaches to the back. I got many stations immediately.

Hi Leanne, Thanks for your question. In response, Yes you can. You'll just need to point the internal antenna towards where the unit will be placed. If you have any other questions, just let us know. Have a blessed day, Mark

Yes, it's possible to wire it, only considering the appropiate polarization of wires, including earth wire.

You haven't said what radio you own and if it has an input for a medium wave antenna, if it doesn't you simply place the antenna close to the radio and you use the tunning knob on the antenna for best reception. You should also rotate the antenna slowly. In case the radio has a mini plug input for that antenna then you have to get a mini to mini cable and connect it that way.

Not sure I understand the question. You can control the radio from the steering wheel if you're steering wheel had those buttons already available. Hope that answers your question.

Yes. There is a remote with the features you mentioned and there are AM/FM antennas.

Yeah you can switch the antenna if you want. The instructions said that if you are far away from a cell antenna you should use a directional antenna. Be careful though because if you are to close to the cell antenna it will overload the amp and shut it down.

Yes it can. Just unscrew the telescopic antenna and screw in the standard coax connection
