Understanding Radio Reception
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 ever get it.
FM Stereo
FM stereo will give you the best sound, but FM signals
will reach only about 10 to 40 miles (16 to 65 km). Tall
buildings or hills can interfere with FM signals, causing
the sound to come and go.
Cellular Phone Usage
Cellular phone usage may cause interference with
your vehicle’s radio. This interference may occur when
making or receiving phone calls, charging the phone’s
battery or simply having the phone on. This interference
is described as an increased level of static while
listening to the radio. If you notice static while listening
to the radio, unplug the cellular phone and turn it off.
