Hello; I think I fixed my radio reception problem. Underneath the radio (inside the compartment behind the radio) their is a silver box, measures about 6" x 2" x 1" their are three power wires that come out of it RED, YELLOW, BLACK by taking out the fuse on the YELLOW wire the reception increased DRAMATICALLY!!! almost perfect. The antenna wire running out of the radio harness runs into this silver box then runs to the antenna connector. My guess is that this little box is the Automatic DX(?) tuner.
