1, new radios do not even attempt any effort on the am section and they suffer for it.
2. new radios=not fun :-)
3. junkyards and car swap meets are available to me. Granted many old radios are rusted up so bad your only option is to find a NOS unit and pay thru the nose.
4. Most importantly I just wanted to know what factory radios from back in the old days were better than others. And if there were period aftermarket radios that were available to those wanting higher quality units. I'm not talking Sears/Jc Witney which would never would have had Top line product.
I'm not sure if anyone noticed but I mentioned putting an old radio in my daily driver which is a 98 Cherokee. One problem would be noise. My Cherokee puts out alot of crap.
