RetroSound WPA1 Enhanced Amplified Hide-Away Antenna
WPA1 Antenna
The WPA1 antenna is designed to mount inside your vehicle when you are not
using a traditional fender mount antenna.
Installation
-
Place the main body of the WPA1 as high in the dash as possible or using the adhesive backing secure to the upper windshield or rear glass. Avoid placing it near any high-current wiring.
Glass installation: Clean the mounting area with an alcohol wipe. Using a lint-free rag, clean any residue off the window. Peel backing off the adhesive strip and press firmly to the glass surface. Be careful not to press too hard on windshield applications. -
Ground the WPA1 to a clean metal point close to its body with the small braided cable and eyelet.
-
Route the antenna cable with the thin black power wire to your radio location. Connect the thin black wire to a 12-volt ignition source or the blue power antenna output wire of your RetroSound® radio.
-
Connect the male antenna plug into the female antenna receptacle of your radio.

During the “Parts” warranty period, there will be no charge for parts. You
must mail in your unit during the warranty period at your expense. This

This warranty ONLY COVERS failures due to defects in materials and workmanship
and DOES NOT COVER normal wear and tear or cosmetic damage. The warranty ALSO
DOES NOT COVER damages that occurred during shipment, failures which are
caused by products not supplied by the warranter, failures that result from
accident, misuse, abuse, neglect, bug infestation, mishandling,
misapplication, alteration, faulty installation, set-up adjustment,
maladjustment of consumer control, improper maintenance, improper antenna,
inadequate signal reception or pickup, power line surge, improper voltage
supply, lightning, modification, commercial use (such as use in hotels,

THERE ARE NO EXPRESS WARRANTIES EXCEPT AS LISTED UNDER LIMITED WARRANTY.
THE WARRANTER IS NOT LIABLE FOR INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES RESULTING
FROM THE USE OF THIS UNIT OR ARISING OUT OF ANY BREACH OF THIS WARRANTY.
(As examples, this excludes damages for lost time, the cost of having someone
remove or re-install an installed unit if applicable, travel to and from the
servicer, and loss of media, data, or other memory contents. The items listed
are not exclusive but are for illustration only.)
ALL EXPRESS AND IMPLIED WARRANTIES, INCLUDING THE WARRANTY OF
MERCHANTABILITY, ARE
LIMITED TO THE PERIOD OF THE LIMITED WARRANTY.
Some states do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or
consequential damages or limitations on how long an implied warranty lasts, so
the exclusions may not apply to you. This warranty gives you specific legal
rights, and you may also have other rights which vary from state to state. If
a problem with this unit develops during or after the warranty period, you may
