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.
