WTK: how do i receive local stations on OEM Legacy stereo?

[locorolla]

Hey folks, please help me with this one.

I have an '05 Legacy with the OEM stereo system, i wuold like to know wat i need to do to convert / modify the radio to receive local (T&T) radio stations.

The jack for the antenna is a 2-pin OEM jack, i actually got a signal booster with the car (unistalled though) - that thing that looks like a long circular cartridge with an RCA male jack on one end and a an insulated wire sticking out as well.

Any assistance would be appreciated................

Bless up............

Jadakiss, could you send me the link to the discussion here about OEm radio conversions?

Recently starting having some tuner radio problems, an intermittent loss of reception, sometimes is restores within minutes.
I suspect the antenna probably losing power. Anyone ever experienced this?

I started getting that problem when my band expander started failing..

I purchased a dash kit and installed a double din deck. I got the 2 pin subaru antenna conversion cable from a guy in St. Helena(Shizard). He did the install also

Kept the factory Mc Intosh Amp and speakers.. Install took around 30 mins
Very pleased with the install
