You'rs is broke.

If it came with no ground wirethen you must mount it to a base that is grounded to the frame/battery. I think [8D]

Just put in a Dakota Digital antenna on my EGC, only had one wire which was positive and the coax to the back of the radio. Ground was through the coax into the radio. So far the reception has been awesome. Only problem now......weather man says rain this weekend[:'(]

If it's bare, it has to be a ground wire.
