AM car radio help lost reception during hurricane evacuation
I was a recent evacuee from hurricane Ivan. My AM radio in my new
truck (2004 ) lost reception of WWL AM after the first 150 miles. This was not the case in my old truck (same , different year.) I am looking for a new current car stereo that has exceptional AM band reception. Anyone know of any? A. Mahler Raceland Louisiana |

Often the problem isn't a bad radio but a bad noise problem coming from elsewhere in the vehicle.) -- Doug Smith W9WI Pleasant View (Nashville), TN EM66 http://www.w9wi.com |

Get Sirius or XM. They work flawlessly in hurricanes.

That's not true. They both have dozens of channels of customized,
localized information and XM even has a special channel for emergency operations. AM radio will be dead soon because of IBOC.
