Q: QuestionCan I add an FM antenna to this radio?

Asked 8 years ago by Phil.

• A:Answer While the power cord for the system acts as the primary FM antenna, you can add an external antenna for greater flexibility in positioning for the best possible reception. Those are available from our support page, http://bose.life/2etOcDe, or by calling our parts team. You can reach us at 1-800-379-2073. We are open from Mon. – Fri., 9 AM – 9 PM EST.

Asked 9 years ago by Bva.
