I have a few open station tractors we use only in the summer for haying jobs. All spend most of their time in a tool shed, but may sit outside for a rain or two during the summer if their shed space is needed for loads of small square bales waiting to be unloaded. My issue is all the fender radios have developed bad reception. All would drag in FM stations really well when new. But over the years each one has been reduced to nothing. I have A local FM country station that the tower is within eye distance, but still I cant drag it in clearly. Does the antenna get rust or corrosion over time?? Each unit has the rubber type antenna and still looks good. Not weather checked. I did notice a year ago I was listening to the radio while raking. Rain moved in with a cold front and we had a wet few days that shut us down. When the sun and heat returned the radio would no longer bring in the station I was listening to when I shut it off. I know something has to be up, but what?? I have a JD with a sound guard cab that had a very good radio. This tractor will get pushed into the weather way more often than others because its cab is rain tight. Over the last handful of years its radio is no longer as good as it was 20 years ago. Whats up, anybody know???
