I just installed my new appradio in a 2003 escalade. The FM sound quality is not verry good, I'm thinking it is due to low reception as some channels are better than others. There a way to boost the antenna reception that anyone knows of? The factory deck seemed much better. Thanks in advance!

Probably need a powered/diversity antenna adapter.

Agreed, that's all it should take.  After people have re powered their antenna amplifier, their fm reception is usually better than factory stock.

Thanks for the replies! I'm not sure what to buy, can anyone recommend anything?
