Here are some more information for Mercedes Radio:
It used to be cell phones. Using one you have to hold while driving makes you an accident waiting to happen. Now the scourge is texting while driving, and it's reaching epidemic proportions, especially among teenage drivers.
Automobile accidents top the list of killers for teenagers. Inexperience and inability to judge road conditions are big factors in many accidents involving teens, but distractions are equally dangerous. Anything that takes your eyes off the road or your hands off the wheel can be deadly in a heartbeat.
Many young drivers are so used to texting all day every day that they assume they can keep up the behavior behind the wheel. Many do.
According to a 2007 national survey of 1,000 16- and 17-year-old drivers by AAA, 46 percent admit to texting while driving.
A study by Students Against Drunk Driving (SADD) and Liberty Mutual Insurance Group showed that:
- Text messaging is the largest distraction for teenagers while driving
- Text messaging behind the wheel is as dangerous as driving drunk
- 37% of the 900 teenagers in the study sent and received text messages while driving, even though they found it "very distracting"
Some states are trying to address the problem, but it's tough for them to enforce laws against texting while driving. The most common result is that we learn about the effects of texting behind the wheel when we hear the sobering statistics about crashes.
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration says that distracted drivers accounted for 80% of all crashes in the United States in 2005 and 2006. For teens, texting is the main distraction.
Where is this epidemic coming from? Primarily from two sources.
First, many teens text all day every day, and they carry the habit into the car. Their judgment about driving is understandably poor due to inexperience. The result is accidental death in many cases, but completely avoidable death if they were not texting...or talking on a cell, or fiddling with the radio.
Second, parents model the same kind of distracting driving behavior for their kids, and the kids naturally pick up on it. If you're a parent and your child sees you gabbing on your cell phone while drinking a cup of coffee as you merge onto the Interstate, do you think they'll magically learn not to drive while distracted somehow? Unlikely.
Laws against texting while driving might help, but they won't fix the problem. People still die because of cell phone distraction, and many states have laws against talking on a cell phone while driving (unless it's a hands-free phone).
Installing cell phone jamming technology in cars might help, but it's an expensive solution that ignores the real problem-learned irresponsibility.
The real solution is for parents to teach their kids how to drive without distractions. The roads are dangerous enough without adding things that take your attention off of the task at hand. When parents do the right thing, their kids will emulate them.

There is No Static With the Mercedes Benz Antenna
A hi-tech mp3, dvd player or stereo system like a Clarion, Alpine or a Pioneer snugs perfectly beneath the leather-made dashboard of the Mercedes Benz. After all, the bass-thumping speakers will be for nothing if not for the sophisticated interior equipped with this state-of-the-art stereo system. Yes, playing mp3’s and CD’s is the way to go in car audio entertainment these days. But there will definitely come a time that radio would be used to listen to hundreds of AM/FM stations. And to get that clear reception listening to these stations, feed the stereo with the full signal brought by the Mercedes Benz Antenna.
That piece of thin steel rod situated behind the driver’s side or the rear of the car is the antenna. It transmits and receives radio waves, which are a class of electromagnetic waves. It basically converts radio frequency electrical currents into electromagnetic waves and vice versa. It works best in air or outer space, which is why it is positioned outside the car.
There are several factors if the antenna is not working properly. Obviously, there is something wrong with the Mercedes Antenna when there is weak reception or it has no station able to receive. Instead, a static sound is heard. The glitch may rise when the antenna is stuck in the half-up or full-up position. The problem may also be at the installation of the antenna itself. There could be wires that are cut so they don’t transmit through the radio system inside.
Here is a do-it-yourself trick in replacing the antenna mast. It all depends on the radio. Just turn the key to the ACCY position and turn the radio off. Remove the special nut, spacer, and bushing. Then turn the radio on. The antenna motor will split the plastic gear out. Take note of which way the teeth of the plastic gear are facing. Leave the radio on.
To put the new mast in, you will need an assistant to turn off the radio. Orient the plastic gear teeth in the same direction the old one came out. Have your assistant turn the radio off. You will hear the motor run and you can feed the gear into the motor. Once the motor grabs the plastic gear, it will draw it in. Don't worry if it did not go completely in at this point. If it doesn't grab the first time, just turn the radio on again and try again. Replace the special nut, spacer and bushing and tighten it. Now continue turning the radio on and off and the mast will move fully up and fully down.
The Mercedes Benz Antenna may be considered as one of the integral components of the audio system of the car. If not for its capabilities, the car won’t be able to receive sounds from AM/FM stations. These antennas are either available in the nearest auto parts stores or online with a host of different styles and specifications depending on the application for the audio system of the Mercedes Benz car.

What could the problem be with a mercedes c230 radio antenna?
The antenna on my radio for my Mercedes Benz c230 won't go up for some reason. It was working up until a few days ago. The radio works okay without the antenna but I would like the antenna to work again. What should I do?
Thanks!
Either the antenna mast, which is replaceable and runs about 60 bucks plus a negligible amount of labor or you need to buy an antenna motor which is not cheap. Good luck
