FM antenna

We have a new 2015 T@B Max S and are on our first excursion.  Everything is working but our FM reception is poor on some stations.  It improves when I touch the metal part below the rubber antenna.  Have others experienced this problem?  Does this indicate a defective connection between the antenna and radio?  Would a better antenna improve reception, and if so, what antenna upgrades have others purchased?  Many thanks for your feedback!

    I don't think it's the highest quality antenna. Maybe a little tin foil on it would help?

    Hmmmmm - First time I've heard a complaint about FM reception. Could be a bad connection (ground?) if it changes when you touch it. Or, you're touch adds your body to the antenna volume. Anyone else in the forums having FM problems?
