Accord 2006 radio receiver

Hi,

I have a very bad reception even from the local radio stations... does
anyone knows how to improve it?
Is it just me or some of you have eimilar problems?
Where is antenna installed?

Thanks.
John

 

Honda has sucky radios. People blame the antenna in the windshield but lots
of cars have that feature and still have good reception. We have a 2005
Accord and 2006 Odyssey and both suck radio wise. Maybe the satellite radio
people are bribing Honda to put in lousy radios.

I'll say it again: mine in my '04 EX Accord 4-cyl non-nav... is just great.
No complaints on either reception or audio quality.

 

Same on my '06 Si. My reception is far better than it was in the last car
with an aftermarket stereo...

 

I just picked up an '06 SE and the radio seems to work pretty good - range
seems to as good or better than I had with the Sienna and better than our
Jetta. My wife doesn't like the size of the display for the system - too
large in our model for just clock/sound system info display.
