I've found a cd player that i love in every way (2/2.5v and 1/5v rca output, 3way parametric eq, sub control, good daytime display, and easy to navigate)...only problem is shoddy fm sensitivity...11.3...would a basic fm booster compensate for that? it's installed inline between the antenna and cd player and claims a 15db boost...btw the deck is a JVC KD-G830...basically an updated version of the KD-SH55 I used to have AND LOVED!!! thnx guys

FM radio?? I thought satellite radio had killed that off by now!

Seriously, since I put in sat radio I never listen to FM any more.

I should have mentioned I have had XM for 5 years and haven't listened to FM unless I am in someone else's vehicle since getting it. But just in case you ask no I don't wanna sell my winegard amplifier even though I don't use it and its sitting in the garage collecting dust.
