tenna folded down. Also, reception deteriorates if

FM reception
Although FM is normally static free, reception can be
affected by the surroundi ng area, atmospheric condi-
tions, station strength and transmitter distance. Build-
ings or other obstructions may cause momentary stat-
ic, flutter or station interference. If reception continues
to be unsatisfactory, swit ch to a stronger station.
