Default Antenna help.

Ok i bought a new antenna from ecklers. I have it mounted and everything but i cant figure out how to wire it. I grounded the black wire form the new antenna then theres a red and blue wire also coming out of the new ant.. I assume that im supposed to hook up the red and blue wired somehow to the 3 wires that were originally conected to the old antenna which are a greenish blue wire, a white wire, and a grey wire.. Can someone help me please?

electric antenna? don't think you ground the black, one wire should be common (probally black) and one for power up and one for power down

yeah its an electric antenna. Well the black wire im pretty sure is a ground because it has a little copper ring a the end that looks like your supposed to fit around a screw and then just tighten down and it fits right on the old ground screw from where the old antenna was grounded.
