Radio reception

I have a 98 S90. The CD and Tape deck even sound great. The FM radio reception is, as they say, quite dodgy. The AM is non existent. Thoughts?

Sounds like you will need to check the antenna connections. FM should be really good.
IF I AGREED WITH YOU,, WE WOULD BOTH BE WRONG !!!!!!

Thanks! you bet as I disassembled the trunk panels, my son and I discovered that the original power antenna was disconnected and an after market antenna installed without connecting it. Now I just need to find a used power antenna.
