Unhappy E240 Problems

Hi All
I have a 98 E240 V6 that is having ignition problems.The key goes in the ignition and turns fine all the appropiate dash lights work but on many occasions the starter wont engage.I finally get the car started by trying the key sequence again and again and finally the starter engages fine.Sometimes this problem wont happen for days then reappear.Could this be a coil problem or a ignition problem.Also the radio reception is great with local stations but when out in the country reception is poor.Could this be a amplifier in the rear pillar problem.Any suggestions would be gratefully appreciated

Maybe there is a problem with the engine immobilizer communications between the key and the car?
