    Hello all

    Does anyone recommend a larger antenna or a signal booster for my 2010 tacoma. I am having trouble picking up stations compared to my wifes Jeep.

    Thanks and sorry if it was poster somewhere.

    Just trying to pick up local stations? Is this a new thing (the losing reception)

    Might want to pull your factory antenna and take a look at it.

    I've seen some get pretty corroded
