I didn't get one with this unit, but I might have previously I can't remember. But I have a plug that goes in the back that's like the larger DJ headset plug.

However yeah, normal radio reception is not too good. But listen to my iPod 95% of the time. Debating on whether or not to get the HD Radio adapter in time, or just breakdown and get Sat radio one day...

Can someone confirm if I actually need antenna adapter because I have noticed that the stock radio reception is really bad as it is - so I assume that even with the schosche it does no better????

I use the Schoche antenna adapter and my radio is perfectly fine.

I have yet to lose reception listening to normal FM stations - I actually drop Pandora stations if anything. (AT&T after all )

Yup, installed it myself. If memory serves me - the antenna harness had a blue wire / white wire / orange wire. There were some posts a while back about people not connecting the orange wire to the main harness - which was the cause of their bad radio reception. May want to give that a try.
