Default Anybody else get less then quality radio reception?

Here come all the questions I am having about my new H3. My stereo seems to not have the best reception even on the channels that generally have a very strong signal. PO installed that ghey billet antenna mount, could that have anything to do with it? Anyone else have this issue. By the way, all chrome and lame will be removed promptly. Thanks in advance for all your help!

Side note: I love it overall, and mountain trip this weekend will give her a chance to prove her worthiness and capability off road and in snow. Cant wait. Stay tuned for snow pics.

NEVER seen anyone on the forum complain about radio reception...

The antennas do have a tendency to back themselves out of the mount. You may want to check to make sure its screwed in all the way.

It seemed pretty solid, but I will check it out further today in the light. It wasnt that bad, but there is a few stations here that play clear everywhere within a 200 mile + radius of Los Angeles and it had some static. No backing out at the head unit? right?

I've listened to some without the antenna and the strong stations come in good. Maybe the antenna came out of the radio under the dash?

I was hoping to avoid trying to fish at that wire, I dont want to have to pull dash. I dont want to deal with waiting on the dealer to fix either. One way or another I have to figure something out.
