It had no radio (the previous owner, who used his extensively, removed it before sale). It also had a cracked windshield which I wanted replaced. I asked around and got a recommendation to go to Silva's Auto Glass & Trim in Elmwood Park. The price was right, etc. so I took it there. Then a few problems, like a leaking radiator, etc. made me hesitate to put my $300 radio in my $600 car, so I waited to install it until two days ago. When it didn't work (3 FM stations and 0 AM), I did some checking. The windshield, which they specifically said had the same built-in antenna as the old one, did NOT have a connection from that antenna to the "car" (the coax going to the radio). The area where that wire would have attached to the windshield was sealed over solidly with RTV rubber. Fernando Silva this morning refused to make good on it. He held tightly to his 90-day warranty and ignored my protests that that windshield never had a working antenna, provably so by the fact that the glass was sealed over and the "car" connector was corroded by months of laying bare and connectorless. If you do decide to patronize them, make sure to get everything in writing AND to personally check every aspect of the work. My personal recommendation is to avoid them at all costs, as I feel very cheated. 46489,07,10/11/93,NORB DEMBINSKI,ALL MICROCHANNEL AUDIO CARD,FROG Anyone know of a good microchannel sound card that is being currently marketed or will be before the end of this year? I do not want or am interested in anything built by Creative Labs like the Sound Blaster boards or some of their other products. I have had nothing but problems with their products and technical support giving me the run around. Thanx printed documentation where and when supplied by the manufacturer.
