Re: Old car radio - how to change polarity?
The only way to put a positive earth in a negative earth vehicle is to completely isolate the earths of the car and the radio.
The earth lead on the aerial must be isolated too. The performance of the set may not be as good because of this, but it's the only way. You can add a ground plane on the aerial but it must not touch the rest of the car.
Run the car radio straight from the car battery. Because the radio and car are separated electrically then it will work.
Cheers,
Steve P.
