yea, that what I was thinking. do you know if the radio sends a constant signal to keep the antena up or just one signal when the deck turns On? If its sending a constant signal, then a switch shouldn't be much of a problem. plus I would prefer that the antena is down when I'm listening to a CD. As it is now, I just switch to the radio while I change CD's. That keeps it from turning off. So far, thats my only real complaint on the deck.

I think that is just the way it works; most cd players only have the antenna go up or down going in or out of the radio. That does sound irritating. What you could do is wire a switch into the power antenna output and just keep it off when you listen to cd's. Just remember to flip it back when you turn to the radio.

So far I really like this Deck. It sounds very good through my shity front speakers and crappy amp. (all to be replaced soon)
but every time when I eject a CD and the face folds down, the deck turns off until you put a CD back in. once you put a CD in the face closes and starts fine. this would bother me much, except for the fact that I have a electric antena which goes down when I eject the CD and goes back up when i put the new one in. kinda anoying.

is this a problem with the way it wired in? or is that just how the deck works? I kinda thought that when I am listening to a CD the deck would tell the antena to go down since its not needed.
