I had a 1992 or so Caravan. Radio was good, but then one day it started hashing badly. No longer able to get CBL 740 which should have been easy from here in the day. I took it to an ace repair shop and the guy said it was "clouds". I explained that clouds cause nothing like this, but he completely dismissed what I said. Never went there again. Russ Edmunds suggested grounding the hood to the body but that didn't do anything. Jim Renfrew
