Shark Fin Antenna

[Razorman]

Another question about my recently inherited S40.
It has a shrk fin antenna on the roof. Stupid question really is this for the car radio?
Someone at work said that they are usually for a bluetooth phone, but this car does not have that facility?

Thanks for the reply, but I don't really understand what that means?
As far as I am aware the radio is just a standard AM/FM radio with a single CD player.

I have posted another question to say that my stand alone sat nav won't work in the car and I asked if anyone knows why. Could the fact that it is "prepared for satellite radio" have anything to do with that?

Thanks 555ST.
Indeed it is good to know that someone at Volvo knows what they are talking about.
So a few more questions :-
1) Any idea why my Sat Nav won't work in the car?
2) If the Antenna is there for the Volvo Sat Nav if fitted do you know if it is actually wired as standard?
3) If it is could I use it as an external arial?
4) If the answer to 2) & 3) is yes any idea on how I would recognise the aerial wire?

I don't want much do I !!!!!

555ST you have mail.

Or rather you would have mail, but it has been returned as undeliverable. I know I got the address right as I copied it direct from your post. Is it correct in your post?
