I never thought of that. I have one plugged into the rear 12v socket. I will remove it ad see if there is an improvement.

Good evening I am getting really lousy radio reception at the moment especially on radio one and two. Retuning does nothing to help. Doesn't appear to be any damage to the external aerial. Any ideas what could be wrong?

Got a 30 mile journey to work this afternoon so I will keep my eye on it. Thanks for the advice.
