As part of my restore, i bought a Pyle marine radio. I also bought a new antenna (not sure of the brand). My problem is that with the antenna plugged in i can barely tune any stations in. I tried my old antenna and have the same problem.

What i found is that if i pull the antenna plug out of the reciever to where it is barely inside socket i get very good reception. Any idea why this is, or how i can resolve this?

Thanks,

I suspect you have broken antenna connector on your radio. Look it over real close and make sure nothing is broke that would cause a short.
