Hi all, I've just replaced my headunit from Sony to Pioneer. The Sony radio reception was ok but the Pioneer is really poor. I've looked into the Din to Din type in line booster that powers off the unit, but so far have read some very mixed reviews. As anyone had first hand experience of using one to boost signal/reception strength? Cheers

This made the difference between no reception and excellent reception on my new Kenwood headunit

Hi & many thanks for that. Oddly enough today I re-scanned more in hope than expectation and have now started to pick up stations on FM. So perhaps I may get away without one but this is really useful to know, thanks.

^ Have just bought one, at that price there's not much to lose if it doesn't work

Sorry to hijack

P1TTBULL you have Pm.

Well it didn't hook up! I thought an in line Din to Din arrangement would be straightforward but my normal aerial plug was too big to fit in the end of booster. In this case is an adaptor needed to link the aerial connection to the booster unit?
