Default Poor radio reception

Hi guys, I noticed a couple of weeks ago that my radio has bad reception.
When I seek up or down new radio stations, it seems that is stops to some frequencies that are not transmitting anything.
I think is the antenna or antenna connectors, but I have no idea how to get to rear glass connectors. Anyone been there, done that?
Thx

Question

I notice the same thing when listening to the radio as well. Some stations have static and others not. I'm not a big radio listener since there's mostly garbage and commercials, but curious if this is common. Thanks!

It's something I've come to live with, the 06 GS has bad radio reception overall, from what I've witnessed.

People still listen to FM radio?? Haha, I guess I wouldn't mind if we had decent stations around here. My reception is good in my 07, but the local music still sucks.

Unfortunately here in Europe we don`t have any XM or Sirius coverage, so I`m stuck with the FM. I am too lazy to burn CDs every week also. The only thing that comes in my mind is that until 2 months ago, I didn`t have this problem with my radio
