On a whim I went over to a car audio shop today to see if they had an antenna to test, and ended up talking to the owner....he assured me that my antenna didn't need 12v, so that left two possibilities - the base and/or antenna or both were shot. He actually had a GM OEM base in stock so I bought it and then proceeded to destroy my forearms and my neighbors ears (from my cursing) getting it swapped out. Of course, at the last stage of tightening the antenna down, it sheared off the 7 to 6mm adapter so I couldn't test fully with the junkyard antenna I had. I've got another adapter and a new antenna coming in a couple days, hopefully that all works.</blockquote>
