Your skull acts as an antenna

How?

The tinfoil hat you're wearing amplifies the signal!

I’ve read two takes on this before:

  1. The cavity of your head helps project the signal to your car

  2. The water molecules in your head amplify the radio waves to reach your car

I can't imagine how water could amplify a signal. If anything, it's the reflector like shape of your skull.

Your skull is a parabolic reflector

The way I do it is holding the bottom of the key under the soft part of the lower jaw while holding the mouth open as a resonance chamber.
