Bay Area, CA

I post several topics about shark fin questions in the last month or so, pls forgive me for adding new one here.

If you are a Prius owner in Bay Area, CA would you check & listen to 91.9 FM (KLove), and tell me if you get a good reception while the car is moving (not stop/park).

I have been thinking about having shark fin mod, this KLove station (christian radio station) is one of my favorites but it gets just OK reception (not great/not bad) with my Prius whip antenna. Yesterday I tried without any antenna... I couldn't hear anything much while the car is moving along highway 87/101. When the car stops, the reception was better. I really don't want to get shark fin mod if I lose this station.

Thank you

San Jose, Milpitas, and Fremont have clear reception. There is no reception in Daly City and San Bruno.

Hope this helps.
