hello all,

forgive this newbie question, but I just got a Sangean ATS 909 and I am
wondering about the audio/signal quality... with headphones or using
the speaker I notice a lot of hiss or low level noise sitting on top of
the signal... even on a very clear local FM channel, I hear this
noise/hiss... it is particularly noticeable at low volume settings...
and it seems impossible to turn the volume all the way down? in
contrast the same local FM channel is very clean on my cheapy Grundig
FR-200... do I have something set incorrectly, or is the 909 just like
this? the freq doesn't seem to matter, it's always there...

thanks for your help,

B.
