Radio Reception

[Kris H]

FM's ok but AM's poor, Radio Five Live is really hard to pick out the voices.

 

Will have a look tonight, but it could be down to the Clarion cats whisker radio set !

 

You still get AM? Amazing.. whatever next!

 

As for Five Live don't they just cover football? Therefore a complete waste of radio bandwidth?

What's wrong with you? This is the purpose of radio you big divvy. Music from CD/MP3, and therefore my choice, radio for footie and other sports - new DAB system now here and due for fitting so extra footie Big up for five live as well.

Sadly Scott seems to be right !

 

The stick tape mod doesn't seem to go with the S1 install, although from a technical point of view.

 

Of course additional screeneing of the received signal will improve things, so I may have a look at changing the coax feed to RG213 or similar.

 

Trouble is RG213 coax is about 10mm outside circumf !

 

 

You know when ......

S1 owners prefer synchronised swimming?

[Scott_Mac]

That may be more interesting to listen to on the radio..

Apparently there can also be grounding problems. A grounding plate can help or just cleaning the contacts may have an effect.

 

Is the ariel plugged into the back of the head unit? Just a thought

[Glennman]

Definately plugged in!!

 

As far as grounding plate is

concerned where are we talking

about, towards the back of the unit??
