You should see me driving down the road trying to get my radio to come in on my car .... I'm leaned over, wacking the passenger's side of the console. It used to work all the time but not so much now. My radio will just go all static .. I think the antennae wire is messed up in the console or something. Shutting the radio off for a few minutes and turning it back on sometimes makes it work again, other times it's wacking the side of the console with my hand, and sometimes I set it to scan (and it doesn't scan right when it's acting disfunctional) and wait for a station to come in, then I try to find something good before it goes static again.
