Default Crappy radio reception

I lived many years with the OEM radio so I know the potential reception. Then I buy a Panasonic deck with the stock antenna and the FM and AM reception is worse.

What can I do to improve reception? And is this a problem with Panasonics?

:no:

some decks have stronger or weaker radio signal "amplification" usually, when you buy a deck, if you are buying from a guide (or not, check the box) it will tell you how powerful the radio is for both AM and FM. chances are, your decks forte is not radio signal :happysad:
