Re: Poor channel receiving in factory stereo

[frank furter <wasserbox@yahoo.com>]

Probably the Antenna wire

Make sure it is 
a) plugged in
b) not broken

If that isn't it, it could be a break on the inside (unlikely, but...)

If you can receive only the strongest FM, and basically no AM at all
(am is harder to pick up) It is something wrong with the wire......

should be a fairly cheap fix
