i went to al and eds on van nuys blvd. the service was superb, and they are very professional.

as for the retracting antenna, when i switch the ignition on, it will go up, even if the HU is off. while its running its always up even if i am not listening to the radio. al & ed's say thats what its supposed to do, and i would loose reception with a rubber ducky. further more, they cant figure out why i would want it in the first place.
