Note: If trying to listen to local FM-HD stations, one will need
externally-mounted FM-dipole antennas to "DX" these local signals.


You should have one anyway.


Whether he needs one or not? What if he has a nice beam on a rotor -
should he take that down and put up a dipole?


Log-periodic on a rotor perhaps...

I meant that FM is better with a proper antenna.

Slacker is coming out with a portable version and Pandora is already
on Sprint cell phones, ready to be streamed in-dash via Ford's new
standard/optional Sync - LOL HD Radio!

- Slacker is coming out with a portable version and Pandora is

- via Ford's new standard/optional Sync - LOL HD Radio!

IBOC Crock - DOH ! - What's the 'Average' Battery Life of a
Cellphone ?
- - - 'Content' Over A Cellphone - Ain't "Free" Over-the-Air Radio

Plus when I am 'listening' to a Radio : I usually don't Answer
a Telephone Ring - The Telephone Is Not My Master [.]
-and- Having my 'Content' interupted by a Cellphone Call
Ain't What I Call Relaxation and Enjoyment.

Being 'Connected' and On-Call 24/7 - Is Not Life :
It is 'Being' a Pavlovian Dog in the Rat-Race of Life.

simply relax and enjoy listening to the
'free' over-the-air radio - now that's life ~ RHF
