Default Tuning antenna
Reception on my new radio is not to good, read that you can tune an antenna, how do you tune one?
Also, should a antenna be grounded?

TIA

What year car?

What do you mean by "new" radio?

Regardless of the answers, our antennas can't be 'tuned', but they can be 'turned on' if you answer the questions properly

It is a 93 aftermarket radio and antenna.

A booster might help, but probably not by much.
