I have the stock radio, the CDR 23. I live in the NY suburbs, so there are many FM radio stations around with strong transmitting signals. No problem receiving signals in my other cars. But the FM radio reception in the Boxster is awful, almost nonexistent, mostly static.

Does it sound like the antenna cable might have fallen out of the back of the radio? Is this a common issue with these cars? Any other thoughts?
