Why excactly does your reception suck? I mean, do you have a bad reception in general, or does it only sound crappy while listening to stations broadcasting extra information, e.g. RDS? Which software version do you use? Is the tuner from patrick?

I had the problem that my reception was always bad while listening to RDS stations. It sounded choppy. I downgraded from 2.0 final to 2.0 Beta 13 and the problems went away!
