03 Tib Radio--AM Reception
The AM reception on my 03 Tib is practically zilch. OK, I do live in
the boonies, but even when I'm in a city area, the reception is flaky, especially in hilly terrain. Is that a common problem, or should I have it checked? The reason that I ask is that I live some 60 miles from the dealer, and I usually only take it in for oil filter and stuff that truly affects the warranty. TIA, Lakeside |

It's fairly common. The 2003 Tiburons have a built-in CD player, a good CD-RW drive is less than $100, blank CD-Rs are $1 each for quality media, Napster is dead but Overnet/Kazaa Lite/OpenNap are still alive, and iTunes is also around.

You can't get weather and real time traffic reports from Kazaa. |

It's fairly common. Pardon my laziness: I know I should have Googled the group, but just had a blonde moment (I'm married to one, so I DO have an excuse!). > > The 2003 Tiburons have a built-in CD player, a good CD-RW drive is less > than $100, blank CD-Rs are $1 each for quality media, Napster is dead > but Overnet/Kazaa Lite/OpenNap are still alive, and iTunes is also > around.

Sirius music offerings are good (get them on Dishnet) but I do like some talk radio. The hosts carried on either/both just don't do anything for me. |

Guess I should have made that a 2-part question, with the second being: Anyone have any success getting them repaired or otherwise made to work? Did indeed do the Google thingy on this group; found LOTS of posts and read most of them, but not one where anyone said a radio had been repaired to their satisfaction. Now, where did I put that lil ole Walkman? |
