    I have a 2003 360, and get static on am radio. FM is fine. The dealer said that it is normal for Ferrari (Becker) radios. Any thoughts?

    AM is notorious for needing a great antenna to get good reception.
    My 350Z has a small antenna, so it gets spotty AM but great FM...


    Don't know the 360's antenna config, but have a car stereo installer look at it, they can sometimes improve the antenna reception...

    WKRP turned off its transmitter in 1982. Go satellite with XM or Sirius!

    I have a similar problem on my '75 GT4. The radio only has AM, and all I seem to get is static. However I find that if I leave the windows open, then I get all the music I want?
