I listen to KUSF at 90.3 on the FM dial. It is a college station from the
University of San Francisco. It has a weak signal. Here is my problem
and my
question. I can receive the signal to the station just fine on car
radios.
However, I cannot get the signal on portable AM/FM radios. My Sony
ICF-SW1
can't pick it up even when I have thirty feet of speaker wire attached to
the
antenna. I went to Radio Shack and none of their portable radios could
pick up
the signal. Why can cars receive the signal easily and portable can't?


Find yourself a GE Superadio (preferably the SRII, but even the *gasp* SRIII
is above average.)
