Yeah, I already read up about the HD radio solution. I paid $23.00 shipped for the USB radio. If it works, it's money well spent as far as I'm concerned. You can't expect these USB radios to work without a proper aerial. That's never going to happen. I think most people either don't take the time to properly hook one up, or do it incorrectly. It has to be grounded to the USB or it's going to suffer massive amounts of interference.

If it doesn't work well in the car, I already will have an antenna installed and can easily go to HD radio. No loss except the $23.00 for the USB radio. It's worth it whether it works or not as far as I'm concerned.
