my current vans always had sh/tty radio reception. i renewed the roof aerial....no good, twice ,,still no good. then i had the idea-maybe the aerial needs to be higher than the ladders to work well.
View attachment 8107 . to prove the point i made up a long aerial using a 4ft bamboo cane with bell wire wrapped around it [bottom end of wire goes into place of the original whip aerial
RESULT! Great reception i can hear stations many miles away clear as a bell now
