Ric Posted July 23, 2006 Share Posted July 23, 2006 it will be the remote wire or the powered antenna wire usually blue with a white stripe (only gives power when the stereo is switched on) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Ads Posted July 23, 2006 Share Posted July 23, 2006 I wired that red wire into the power to the clock, worked ok for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

geoffvalenti Posted July 23, 2006 Share Posted July 23, 2006 yeah done it now i thought the digits on the radio would now go up to 108mhz but they dont is this right?? No, all it does is convert the signal to a lower frequency. You'll have to subtract (off the top of my head) 18Mhz to get the right channels you're looking for. So for example Capital Radio in London is 95.8 Mhz but reads out at 77.8 on the J-Spec radio. HTH Back in 2 mins, just going to check my radio Just checked, and my converter is definitely lowers the frequency by 18 Mhz. It took longer than I thought, as I'd recently replaced the battery, so the radio had lost all its settings, and I had to retune the thing. I never listen to it so it probably would have been like that for months otherwise Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
