The above locations on the vehicle body include the marginal edge of a closure such as trunk lid, roof or engine hook, and various connections between each adjacent vehicle portion of flat configuration such as pillars supporting the roof panel or trunk hinges. One of the high-frequency pickups are adapted to be automatically selected such that it can receive radio or other waves more sensitively.
