Removing a radio from a car. Durability?

[WiseCog]

So when you check the car most radios are damaged but when you remove them, they are not damaged anymore? Can someone explain this, or is it simply that I can not see how damaged it is. So if I put it into another car it will be damaged again?

Yes, but being damaged, or not, has absolutely no effect on the functioning of the radio.

I assumed as much. So there's really not a use for the durability of radios at the moment then as they don't loose durability with time used. And you can not repair them?

As someone relatively new to PZ, why are you removing a car radio to being with? Do they provide you with anything other than materials when you break them down?

They can have stations that other radios do not. Its just a quicker way of getting a radio with "helicopter" channel. But they also give EXP to uninstall and install.
And cop car and similar cars have the Ham Radio as well, which is the best radio in the game.

Any radio can be set to the EMS broadcast channel not just the ones with it preset.
