Default 08 RX400h A/C

I just bought this car, and the A/C doesn't seem to be working, so I know I've got to get that fixed. My question is about how to set the A/C temperature. The inside temperature seems to adjust by degrees to about 65, but when I try to get below 65 it just says "LO". Is that the lowest the A/C will go to? That would be fine, and will be okay once I get the A/C fixed, but on super hot days I might want to initially set it cooler. Is 65 the lowest it will go?

I'm sure I'll have more questions!

Oh yeah, the AM radio setting gets no reception. Is that a problem for others? We have a strong AM station locally, and all I get is static. Could something be wrong with the rear window antenna? FM stations come in clear.

65 or max low is the lowest you can go on the AC.
The radio antenna should be on the roof. Should be a black stick, pen length on the passenger side back of the roof. (at least on my 2006. I assume it's the same for all years)

Thanks. It would appear that my antennae is broken, as there's a raw edge. I imagine I'd need to have the antennae motor replaced. Not a high priority, but kind of a bummer because I like to listen to talk radio while driving.
