[urq] Radio Reception

[Mark R]

Max,
I *think* the factory antenna is amplified.  The wiring diagram will confirm
this.  I know you don't have a roof-mount FUBA, but the symptoms are classic
VW FUBA bad amplifier.

As other's suggested, check the wiring and grounds.  Could be a short in the
cable, head unit, etc.
