I think poor reception is a frequent problem with WiFi devices that have Radio and do not have an external antenna.
If you look at the Roku forums you'll see there are plenty of users who complain about the Roku's poor AM performance and who have to attach an external antenna for FM. I have the Griffin Shark2 and found without an antenna it gets all the local FM stations. It is not well documented but you can use an external antenna with the Shark2 and I use it with my local cable so I can get BBC stations with FM quality. IIRC The AM reception is not good but I don't use AM much and it is possible a long USB cable would enable a better position away from the various PC related PSUs. -- bpa ------------------------------------------------------------------------ bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=39376 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
