Why can I only receive AAR local radio in my car & not in the house?

[napi21]

I can get pretty good reception of AAR that is broadcast out of Atlanta when I'm in my car, but I can't get ANY reception on any radio in my house!

I admit, I don't have any super expensive radios, but what would I have to look for, if I were to buy a new one for in the house, so I can get AAR there too?

Now, I listen to it on the net, but every time my internet goes dow, I obviously loose that option! And yes, that happens far more often than it should!!!!

1. Does AAR come in on AM or FM for you?

I think it is harder to get AM in the house, because my stereo turner doesn't pick it up. Maybe you can buy an auxiliary antenna for your radio.

2. AM. It a decent size station out of Atlanta which is about 45 mi.

South of my house.

3. Maybe a portable radio meant for AM reception

with a telescoping antenna that you can adjust and aim.

4. Well, I also did some research on-line, and it seems

lots of good things are being said about a GE Super Radio III. It's taughted as being very good a pulling in AM stations.

I think I'm going to try it. I'll post the results here in case others might be having the same proble.

Thanks for the help.

6. actually whats wierd is that theres a spot in my subdivision

where you completely lose reception for ten feet than it comes back on. Seriously does anyone know what gives?

7. Probably power lines

The electrical flux interferes with radio signals.
