Understanding Radio Reception
IMPORTANT:
Before you add any sound equipment to your machine like a CB radio, mobile telephone or two-way radio, be sure you can add what you want. If you can, it's very important to do it properly. Added sound equipment may interfere with the operation of your vehicle's engine, radio or other systems, and even damage them.
Your vehicle's systems may interfere with the operation of sound equipment that has been added improperly. Before adding sound equipment, check with your dealer and be sure to check Federal Regulations covering mobile radio and telephone units.
FM STEREO: FM stereo will give you the best sound, but FM signals will reach only about 16-65 km (10-40 miles). Tall buildings or hills can interfere with FM signals, causing the sound to come and go.
AM: The range for most AM stations is greater than for FM, especially at night. The longer range, however, can cause stations to interfere with each other. AM can pick up noise from things like storms and power lines. Try reducing the treble to reduce this noise if you experience it.
