Hi Peeps,
Recently, My AM radio reception has all but dissappeared. Super, super static and nearly unhearable except for MAYBE one station, even then I have to turn it up real loud. My FM is fine. Any suggestions as to what is going on? When I set the radio to autotune, it finds no stations and just keeps repeating the cycle.

Thanks.

Isn't that normal for AM reception. I don't really use my AM, actually not at all ... That's the way my AM usually sounds though, poor quality and distorted.

 

Did you vacuum under the dash area? Your antenna connection might be loose.

 

Hi,
Does anyone know where the AM antenna location is? Is it under the dash or in the engine compartment? That way I can check if its loose or not.

Thanks.

 

Its 2005 who needs the AM?

Yea, what's AM?

 

Come on now AM, you know....as in Morning! Get with the PM program people.

AM/FM/PM/whatever antenna is all the same connection. It's behind the radio. Plugged directly into it. If you AM is out then your FM would be the same. In this case it's probably the signal strength in your area that's all. Tell them to put up more towers.

 

I got the same problem, no AM reception at all, i figured it was b/c i have an inline FM modulator... but maybee its just that the antena on the rear windshield suks.

 

I think thats common the AM isn't that strong when I put on AM I rarely get any good signal. Sorry can't really help you out

 

He's stuck in the 40's

 

sports only are on AM....
thats why

AM comes in better at night,solar flares from the sun during the day distort the signal....

 

You people are ridiculous. AM is about all the radio I listen to. Between Boortz and local sports coverage, you can't beat it.

(FYI, your antenna connection is most likely loose)

 

What do you know about Boortz? I know you're on that 790 for sports, right? Can't beat 2 Live Stews and Southern Comfort.
