I rarely get to use the GP at the moment cos Mrs R loves driving it, but I managed to steal the keys this morning, and on my tedious commute to work I like to listen to Radio 5 (for all you whipper snappers, its on AM:yum: ). However, my usual pleasure in driving the GP was soured this morning with the radio constantly working fine, and then all of a sudden just starts blaring out static. If I change back to FM its fine, when I then change it back to AM, still the static. If I turn it off, then back on again, Radio 5 is back to all its glory. It only does it once every 20 minutes or so, but its begining to get on my nerves.(n)

If it happened on FM when Mrs R is listening to the dulcet drone of Jo Willey or similar on Radio 1, I wouldnt be in the least bit bothered, but it doesnt, only on AM:rolleyes:

Has anyone else experienced a similar problem, or is my GP telling me that I am getting old too soon and should really be listening to some apes banging drums on Radio 1?:yuck: :cry:
 
I had exactly this problem with mine, Steve. The dealer has fitted a booster to the aerial and AM now works all the time.
