Hi Pablo,

I have noticed more and more AM interference in the last couple of years. However, the radio in my 2006 CR-V has less of a problem with interference than any other AM radio I have heard.

But, the coming thing is HD radio. I know, sounds absurd, but it is digital radio. Digital AM is supposed to be a BIG difference IF you have the special digital receiver. Otherwise, it sounds the same on your regular radio. Very expensive converters are now available that plug into the satelite adapter input on newer radios. The talk radio station here started broadcasting in digital last year, but it is not widespread yet.

At night, regular AM is just about useless now.

Sorry, I probably did not answer your question.

Subject: AM radio reception in a 2006
From: Pablo
I just got a new 06' Civic and love it so far but have found that the
AM radio reception is TERRIBLE TO NON EXSISTANT. Before you ask WTF are
you doing listening to AM, lets say I like talk radio.

Are all yours the same or is mine screwed up???

It's not high definition radio. It's just digital radio.

High Definition radio is a value added option designed to enhance your audio
experience.
