Radiosignal (russian) Why do I get Radiosignal thru the effects. I know that WhaWha pedals do that but I haven't had it before, it started with the AxisFuzz (Roger Mayer schem).   The Guitar goes thrue a handmade distorion box with 5 distortion effects all with thrue bypass.   Guitar -> TS9 -> Guv'Nor -> YJM308 -> AxisFuzz -> Microamp -> WhaWha -> ZOOM GX707 -> Amp (Marshall Bluesbreaker).   The radiosignal is only there when the AxisFuzz is on, TS9, Guv'Nor, YJM308 no problem.     Why Why Why ?

Book Of The Day

The Ultimate Tone, Volume III by Kevin O'Connor Have you ever wondered if there is a better way to build a Bassman, Champ, Plexi, an 800, AC-30, Bulldog or Portaflex? Or you wanted to build an SVT with off-the-shelf parts? How about a master-volume amp that doesn’t change tone with the master setting? Everything you need to know is right here, including: proper grounding techniques, wiring methods, and mechanical considerations. Eighteen chapters cover the “iconic” amps everyone knows and loves, with schematics and layouts for each, along with the technical history of the product. Eyelet-board and chassis-mounted tube socket construction is used throughout, for easy servicing and modding. TUT3 is very accessible even if you cannot fully read a schematic and is a "must have" if you are going to build an amp for your self. Note: The Ampage Archive is an Amazon Associate site. A small commission is paid to the site owner on any qualified purchase made after clicking an associate link such as the one above.

anonymous	You got germanium diodes in that fuzz at all?,they are good radio signal detectors.But like Igor says about grounding is good.

Earl	Examine all your cables for any not sheilded. For example using a speaker cable anywhere in the input chain will introduce RF. also a sheilded cable with bad sheild will do this.
