I have a show tomorrow that I need to record and in testing my new CA-9100 out I've noticed that I get a strong radio signal that makes the recording sound terrible. Here's what the situation is:
I set up the deck and the pre-amp on my bed about 5 feet from my stereo and turned up my turntable to test the levels. When I put the headphones on I heard the music as well as interference. To make sure it wasn't just the music, I stopped the record and listened: LiteRock 105 was playing (local radio station). To find out where it was coming from, I unplugged the preamp from the deck. Now I just had the headphones and the deck: no sound, as expected. I then connected my headphones to the preamp: LiteRock again. So it's definitely the preamp.
I've searched the forums and haven't been able to find an answer. Also, per iGene's advice, I tried wrapping the preamp in aluminum foil but I didn't notice a difference, though when I did put the aluminium foil into the input I got a real strong FM signal.
Am I the only one who has had this problem?? How can I stop this or combat this?
