That's very cool, and great info. I too find the weather band useful. I have the NOAA bands in my CB, however...... Do you find that this radio pulls in AM/FM signals a *lot* better than the stock radio? I imagine the reception is on par with most post head units made in the last while but am curious if there's a significant difference. Thanks for posting that info Neil.
