The radio station you selected may be far away from your area or radio wave reception is weak in your area. The noises may be generated from atmospheric electricity, lightening, fluorescent lights, motors, or thermostat electric devices. If too much noise is generated especially in the evening, the CinemaStation may be placed close to a TV. Solution Make sure the AM loop antenna is connected properly.
