yes it does for it to work correctly
the antenna is in the right rear side glass.
The main thing to remember for CB radio antennas is that taller antennas will work better. If this is for a vehicle, select a tall antenna where at least 50 percent of it will be above the roof line. You will have the best range this way.
VHF radios work by the line of sight principle
The K40 will not work as a marine band antenna, as it is "cut" (optimised) for 26-30Mhz. The Marine Band of frequencies is usually found 156-174Mhz.
Only if you want the radio to work.
The radio antenna may only work when you touch it because your body is acting as a conductor, improving the antenna's reception by grounding it and reducing interference.

You can replace an XM radio antenna with a CB antenna, a ham 40-meter mobile antenna, a cellphone antenna, a GPS antenna, a TV antenna, a wire coat hanger, a 6 GHz microwave antenna, or a chain of paperclips. However, since none of them is optimized to operate at the frequencies of XM radio, like the XM antenna is, none of the others will work as well. Most of them will likely be so inefficient at the satellite radio frequencies that when you use one of those, you hear nothing at all on your radio.
Andrew Alford is known for his work in developing the Alford loop antenna, a type of radio antenna. It is commonly used in shortwave radio receivers for its compact and efficient design.
An antenna works by converting electrical signals into radio waves for transmission and vice versa for reception. When an electrical current flows through the antenna, it creates electromagnetic waves that can travel through the air. These waves carry information in the form of radio signals. The antenna's design and length determine the frequency of the radio waves it can send and receive.
The Sony marine radio is usually made for boats because it uses satellite radio instead of terrestrial sources. This means that it should work just as well in a car as on a boat.
the antenna is in the right rear side glass.
because you don't have signal or it's broken the radio system, chek the antenna connection.
Works when you turn off engine or radio.
