That would be it. Friendly warning, it takes a little while to get the hang of the radio settings. the Usb is plug and play. I am now thinking of getting new speakers. I am into crisp clean and clear sound, bass isn't that big of a deal, but is nice.

Hey urbanlegend, what model/size and what price range? are you talking dash speakers or door speakers. Thanks MP.

Can you get any decent channels?
In ann arbor just two stations listed on the web - and they are both college radio.

No TV broadcast stations here either - so just 2-3 digital tv stations. I am going to have to run cable to my garage.

Yeah, the boxster antenna really sucks for rurual areas!!

I do get more than before but not by much. My only digital is just a little too far away that it fades, I am trying to figure out if I can turn off the Hd function.
