Default 05 Radio

I have an 05 Ultra and have difficulty getting the radio to lock in the station. Does anyone else have this issue. This is the first bike I have owned with a radio so I am not quite sure what quality I should expect. As another option, does anyone make a replacement after market system that has all of the features (radio, CB and intercom) of the stock system?

Gandolf 50,
Make sure the radio is not on scan mode, the radio will continually scan from strong station to strong station.

Invest in Sirrius, no problems getting radio stations from coast to coast. Works great on my bike. Also do a search on the Hog Tune Speakers, that will make a huge difference in the quality of the sound.
