tig Donating Members 735 Member For: 17y 9m 15d Gender: Male Location: kenthurst, Sydney Posted 22/01/09 09:52 AM Share Posted 22/01/09 09:52 AM My FG ute is about as good as my old BA ute which is pretty shocking. I travel north and south of sydney and FM is okay but as I am in my twilight years (47) like to listen to a bit of talkback on the AM dial and that is absolutely useless as soon as I head up the expressway (worse north of sydney than south) So I have to either listen to some dumb fxxxk like Kyle on FM or turn off the radio and talk to myself.

Only suggestions I got from my local installer was a shark fin or going back to an in-guard antenna ie old 90s cars. Guess I'll just have to deal with it cos' both those options suck.
