[QUOTE="soberups, post: 426476, member: 14668"] To answer your question; yes radios are allowed in the package cars, but they must be secured in such a manner that they do not obscure your view of the windshield or mirrors, or pose a tripping hazard. The big yellow jobsite radios are usually too bulky to be practical in this regard. My experience with AM radio is that reception is usually poor; if your package car is gas-powered you will get so much interference from the spark plugs on the AM band that you wont be able to listen to it at all. The diesels are somewhat better, but there are still enough electronics under the hood that AM is tough to hear. I have never had a problem recieving FM in any type of vehicle. [/QUOTE]
