The radios in these rigs are pathetic. I found a ribbon antenna coiled up behind the radio similar to sandy43. FM signal was very poor and AM was nothing but static. This was the same situation in our previous RVs - 2011 Jayco and 2017 Laredo. For our current rig I bought a cheap car antenna at Walmart and mounted it behind the TV in hopes things would improve. Reception for both bands is better but not as good as my truck radio. If you really want good reception you need to mount an exterior sidewall mount antenna or a roof mount antenna, and purchase a decent car radio, and throw the Jensen away. I did not want to cut on my wall or roof, or spend the $$ for a new car radio. We listen to lots of AM talk radio on a good portable we have had for years. Problem solved.
