I know it AM and do not expect high fidelity....but shouldn't a LEXUS radio include an AM section that is at least equal to my wife's SUBARU? I would think so!

I know a while back Lexus issued a service bulletin regarding the poor AM reception on the SC's. Also, if I remember right, there was a thread on the board describing how to improve your AM reception by basically gutting out your radio console, and antenna and doing something to it. For hardcore AM sportstalk/newsradio listeners only ....

AM radio signal works differently than FM. FM is straight shot type, hence the fading in and out in hills. AM bounces off the atmosphere. Depends on the strength of the signal and unit. Also, Lexus may have used the antenna for FM and AM. AM needs a loop antenna to work well. FM needs a split type.

So is it true about the service bulletin? And if so, would I be able to get it fixed if I'm a second-hand buyer?
