are any other autotrail owners having or had any problems with radio reception i loose channel and signal wherever i am in the country so annoying any suggestions would be appreciated
I have a 2009 Cheyenne with the tiny ( useless ) reversing screen
The radio is ok once I have parked up but doesnt go loud enough when travelling and as you say..straysoff channel.. The ariel I think is in the nearside mirror pod.
Its pretty useless.It does provide ok sound for the dropdown tv and dvds
but its a pretty flawed and cheap radio.

I tried a couple of different aerials , the Status tv aerial was not used as I had a sat dish so I took a cable from the status booster to the radio and problem solved.
You must have the Status with the extending telescopic thingy's and the booster box must be on
We get great reception just about everywhere

Yes I know what the thread is about , I like the OP and others had reception problems with the cab radio with the aerial in the wing mirror (or were ever it was ), I removed the supplied radio and fitted a new Pioneer sat nav/ entertainment system, reception was not much better , so I tried a cheap wind screen mounted one and allthough marginally better it was still not good enough, I then tried a Blaupunkt booster screen mounted aerial (almost £40) that was no better than the cheap one .Errrrr.. Baza.... We are talking about the car radio aerial mate.. not the telly !

I then thought why cant I use the Status tv aerial as I never use it for tv as I have a Sat system, so I rang Grade UK who make them and asked it it would be suitable for use as a cab radio aerial whilst on the move , there chap said as long as it was the one with telescopic pull outs it would work very well.
So I then took a coaxial cable from radio ,through dash round cab door(under trims) then up into hab cupboard where the Status booster was fitted , I then plugged into booster ,turned booster on and Bingo , great radio reception, But booster must be turned on and telescopics on Status pulled out
I have had great reception every where I have been so far north and south
Hope this explains it better
