Angry Static on radio

I have had my x-fire since May and my wife loves it. I enjoy it on weekends. I actually try to use this car instead of my other sports car or SUV. The only problem we have is that the radio SUCKS. We get static all the time. When you live in the NY metro area stations are never a problem. The dealer told me that they had been seeing this on the coupes but not the roadster. I wrote a letter to the Chairman of Daimler and it filtered down. I said I would be happy to pay for an upgrade radio so I could get satellite. They only have one other radio. Its the GPS and if you don't order it from the factory ut can't bechanged. I don't understand that because you can get an aftermarket radio installed.

They are going to changemy radio in a week and a half, check the antenna to make sure that there isn't a short somewhere and hopefully solve the problem.

Any suggestions?
