Default Radio Static Problem?

On my way to school in the morning, in my 2005 coupe, while I listen to the radio, there's a lot of static and I mean lots of it. But when Im driving home in the afternoon theres less static if at all noticeable. Is there anyway to fix this? Or adjust the antenna?

Not sure, but I know when I installed HID's in my Sierra, I started getting issues with FM reception. Looked into it, and sure enough HID's cause interference for radios. I've noticed the same in my Vette. Any chance that you're going to school with your lights on and home with them off?
