Most Cars and Truncks 'only' have a Whip Antenna
and in general their AM/MW Reception is very good.

That's because in that case the whip is handling both AM and FM
reception (never understood how that works), we don't know yet if the
E1's whip will operate that way though.

If not, you could get a Jensen amplified AM/FM antenna. Not sure how
much it costs or if it's still being made, I bought mine some time ago
at Wal-Mart. It sorta' looks like a black rendering of Washington
Monument with a small knob near the bottom to adjust the amp and a green
LED letting you know that the amp is on. The AM lead-in on this thing
connects via two lugs which can be lopped off with a wire stripper if
necessary. The FM lead-in is a 75-ohm coax connector with a supplied
matching transformer.
