User questions & answers

Question:	Can you connect an AM Antenna to boost signal
Answer:	I bought a lot of this seal strip, the quality is very good. the adhesive is very strong. Very good price, You can buy it with confidence.
Question:	How is FM reception inside a metal building
Answer:	That’s what I wanted to know. It has 3M on the tape but 3M is listed no where in the product listing. Thought that to be rather strange🤔
Question:	Where is it made
Answer:	I didn't have success on the left side of my front door because I didn't buy the very wide tape strip and the strip folded itself between the door and the door frame when I opened my door - but only on the left side where the hinges are. So, in my opinion, it only works on 3 sides (top, bottom, and right side). I am going to try a different black foam strip with tape backing for the inside between the door and the frame for the left side only.
Question:	Can you please advise what kind of adapter I should buy to be able to use this radio in Europe
Answer:	I installed the sealing strip along the outside of the door, across the bottom. It stays the cold air out. It also slides easily on the floor.
