Default Reception

I just had a new deck installed and the reception for the FM radio is the pitts. I live in the Niagara Falls, Canada. I was wnadering were I could pick up a FM Booster of some sorts. Chercked Crappy Tire and Wal-Mart with no luck.

how techy are you with stereos Dabber? i would suggest pulling the unit out and checking the antenna connector. If it was installed by a shop, take it back to them to hafve them check it - it should be a warranty issue they should take care of themselves.

HAHA [:-] I'm not the best but I get by. I will probably bring it back to the Install Bay, It's a Indash DVD unit and I really don't wanna mess with that type of stuff. I get decent reception, but if I turn it down to a level so that I can talk to passengers you can really hear static.
