    Why is there noisy radio reception on my Pioneer S-A6800 Receiver?
    • J
      Jacqueline LongAug 16, 2025
      Noisy radio reception can occur if the radio signal is weak; in this case, an outdoor antenna will usually give better results than the supplied indoor types. Other electrical equipment, such as TVs, fluorescent lamps, and motors can cause interference, so try switching off or moving the nearby equipment, or moving the antennas. Check that the antennas are connected properly. For FM, make sure that the antenna is fully extended and positioned to give the best reception. For AM, make sure that the loop antenna is pointing in the best direction. The tuning interval may be incorrect for your country or region, so try switching the tuning interval.
