Audio System
Radio signals, especially on the
FM band, are deflected by large
objects such as buildings and
hills. Your radio then receives
both the direct signal from the
station's transmitter, and the
deflected signal. This causes the
sound to distort or flutter. This is
a main cause of poor radio
reception in city driving.
Radio reception can be affected
by atmospheric conditions such
as thunderstorms, high humidity,
and even sunspots. You may be
able to receive a distant radio
station one day and not receive it
the next day because of a change
in conditions.
Electrical interference from
passing vehicles and stationary
sources can cause temporary
reception problems.
