I can pick up 87.6Mhz (Raw FM) just fine until my amp turns on, just power and remote wire, nothing else, and it still loses 87.6Mhz, all other stations stay OK.
WHYYYYY?

RF interference.

Does your amp have a tiny recessed slide switch on it somewhere? Some amps have a slide switch for issues like that. I've never actually looked into what it does electronically but it's to prevent RF interference.

Can't see any switch... It's a Response amp from Jaycar.

Do you have another amp you can borrow to see if it makes any difference?
