How good is your antenna for the station that you are trying to receive?
Do you have an outside antenna?

A 1/4 wave ground plane in the attic of a wood-framed house. Some of the
local stations (within 5 miles) are very strong, and I can get some stations
80 miles away (not with good audio). The antenna is not the problem. What
concerns me is that even the very strongest signals do not give full
quieting on stereo.
