Not a silly question, but not AM for sure.? ?1070 KNX in LA for example.

Good evening folks,

?

This week I went to my radio's? AM broadcast stations to listen to local radio. ? They are programmed in along with local FM as well as the usual simplex and repeater frequencies. ?

?

What I got in the way of audio was very low volume and highly distorted. This was on all three stations I checked.

I changed the wire antenna to a different one with no change in behavior. ?

?

All the rest of the bands and modes appear to be fine.? FM broadcast, SSB and digital modes for example.?

?

Can anyone suggest a menu item I may have accidentally changed which would cause this?? Ive looked at all 91 or so without any obvious changes.?

?

73 and thanks in advance.
