The power antenna relay somehow knows by excessive current draw(my best guess) when to shut off. It can also flip the polarity inside. OK, tell all y'all what; I will fiddle with this on my Burb. I do not want to hurt my Bonnie or someone can pm me their PH# and walk me thru the steps over the phone if I do it to my car.

The relays associated with the power windows use around a 10 gauge wire. The antenna uses about a 16 gauge....maybe 14. They two are very different. The way The power antenna relay works is if it has power to the third wire it pushes up. then stops, when power is removed, it reverses.
