[QUOTE="RadioHowie, post: 50351, member: 426"] One thing you might consider is this... Your typical "Walkman"-style radio uses the headphone wire as its antenna. It might be worth procurring a headphone extension cord, say another 3-6 feet, temporarily taping the extension around the perimeter of the shield and/or fairing and see if you don't get a boost in signal. The downside is you might be increasing the amount of electronic "engine" noise you're already getting from the ECU, ignition and alternator, all of which I'd be reasonably sure aren't shielded. Not HALF as annoying as when Stern goes on Sirius. [COLOR=#0000FF][SIZE=7pt](let the Stern sheep-bleatings begin...)[/COLOR][/SIZE] [/QUOTE]
