Default Radio issues

Recently my radio in bluebird has just not been receiving much signal. Sometimes it get a little but mostly its just crackling what would cause this? I've not messed about with anything.

Do you have the highline sat nav system? If so, check for water in the spare wheel well at the connectors to the radio tuner (silver box on the right under the black plastic cover down there)

Have you fitted any electrical items needing transformers (sat navs, phone chargers etc0? My dashcam power supply interfered with the signal as soon as it was switched on. A "shielded" power supply cleared the fault.
