.. My car radio, although good on FM, stinks on MW. It's about as sensitive as
a
brick, but I don't want to replace the radio. Does anyone sell a high-gain
AM
car antenna
Replace the Car [.]
Go to one of the nicer junk yards in your area (they're in every city.)
There's a couple in our area that when you walk in, on the left side against
the wall is a HUGE see-through cabinet stock full of all kinds of different
radios.
Older just AM radios are the ones I like and have in my 'fun car.' Those tend
to be the *hot* radios. I've even saw radios with shortwave bands on them, of
course....they're more.
What wrong with popping in a just old cleaned up hot only AM radio? I promise
that would solve the problem pronto.:-) I have a just AM Delco with either 5 or
6 push-button channels to program and on the volume knob it pulls out if you
want to anttenuate the signal, I've often wonder the db loss when I pull that
out.
It came with the original radio papers 'explaining' AM radio and how the radio
works. It's a hottie! :-)
