Never seen that. Maybe the pot for balance is just dirty/broken. Those old radios aren't particularly hard to disassemble, but you may have to just desolder the pot and actually open it to inspect/clean it.
Also... I don't know if any of those Buicks ever had an optional amplifier, but be certain it doesn't have one, as that may be your problem area. I did have a similar GM radio in a chevy van once that only received a morse code signal, for the letters KM over and over again. |

Chicago, lol? Why would navigation aids be using morse code identifiers broadcast as sound beeps in analog radio?

http://www.dxinfocentre.com/ndb.htm It is possible that these low frequency signals might be picked up by the if amp in AM radios, particularly auto radios that often have an if frequency in the 200 to 300 khz range instead of the more common 455 khz. jr Note: 262.5 khz is apparently common auto radio if Last edited by jr_tech; 11-11-2017 at 01:08 AM.

That might be the case.

Just hit the auto salvage yards and save yourself the trouble.
If you remove it yourself, you can get if for $20 or less. |

I mean maybe, but it was only two letters, over and over. Pretty hard to screw up.

Where I used to live the "BE" beacon would get into a lot of radios. It was at Hanscom AFB a.k.a Bedford AFB about ten miles away. 73 Zeno LFOD ! |
