I suggest you tune it to 107.7 Triple J, or the equivalent frequency in your state.

..............

What do you mean tune it? Do you mean adjust it?

I Didnt think it was adjustable. Can be checked. Main thing to check is the slack of the Accelerator cable, if to slack can affect throttle response but thats about it.

THROTTLE POSITION SENSOR (TP SENSOR)
Inspection
1) Disconnect negative cable at battery and coupler from TP sensor.
2) Using ohmmeter, check resistance between terminals under
each condition given in table below.
TERMINALS RESISTANCE
Between 1 and
3 terminals
4.0 – 6.0 k
Between 1 and
2 terminals
0.02 – 6.0 k , varying linearly according to throttle valve opening
If check result is not satisfactory, replace TP sensor.
3) Connect TP sensor coupler securely.
