Doru, here's my experience with the radio so far ...right out of the box, the radio reception isn't the greatest.I tested it under all of the circumstances you listed above : stop lights, while driving and underground parking lots ;
the signal was worse than the OEM radio that I thought was ok, BUT Jeff sent me part of a future software update that tweaks the radio a little, and after 2 days after that update,again, doing the same kind of testing, I see a much improved radio signal and a more constant reception overall.It really made a difference and although I don't listen to the radio a lot, I'm pleased that now it works better than before.
So far, in all honesty, I have no regrets for ordering this unit .For everything that it gives you , simple and intuitive interface as well as the OEM looks, can't see a reason not to get one.

Hopefully this makes sense ..
