Default Japan NRD 525 static problems

I have a Japan NRD 525 which I love and is fairly uncomplicated to use, but very recently I've had severe static problems. And I am wondering if something is wrong with my long wire antennas, or is it in the radio? I have another older radio that I hooked up to my antennas and find there is no static so I am led to believe it is in the radio. Any thoughts or suggestion on where I can go to find out the source of the static, as it is really bad.

I have a NRD 525 and a Satellit 800 and using a full size G5RV can't really tell any difference in static level between the two receivers. The sound quality of the Grundig is slightly better to my ears anyway.
