Factory! If so, throw it out and put a new one in. Replace the antennal as well.

I would assume a bad earth somewhere.
In most cases, the aerial is mounted so that it acts like an earth.
Or a damaged aerial/plug/cable.
Is the radio aftermarket!

Might as well have our radio. brand new car with 9 speaker stereo, switched it off when we left the dealers and haven't used it since . Hate a radio in a car. I like to hear whats going on around me
