| Just got a VESTEX 275 Mixer and hooked it up and realized with just the mixer on and nothing else I can hear a faint radio station playing in the headphones? Our phone line has a radio station in the back round but I dont' know if that has anything to do with it. Somebody tell me something. I have absolutly no clue what is going on. |

looks like the local radio station isnt tuned right :crazy:
well i think theyre are some hum/noise illiminators that you can get that will clean out the sound :)

| Are the speaker wires you're using shielded? Unshield wires pick up foreign frequencies. |

Unshield wire is #1 reason why you hear unwanted radio frequencies. Make sure all your wires are shielded. |

| Actually I think they are shielded. I have narrowed the problem down has to be between my amp and speakers. Could the problem be that each of my speaker cables are 25ft a piece? |

yeah dude, a long unshielded cable like that will act as a massive antennae, you know like the ty little wire ones you get with mini hi-fi's. If youve got the cable coiled up too, unravel it and lay it in a straight line, preferably not along side any mains cables.
As for picking up noise, my decks or mixer picks up the police radio, which is cos i live overlooking the most busiest part of the centre of my town, and there's ALWAYS fight and police being called. So no midnight and after club mixtapes for me :D |
