My C6, with the first version of radio, has always had a bit of interference on the radio reception. In the last few months it has became unusable. It might pick up something in the higher frequencies, but low down, it just gets interference, if it can get anything at all.

Am I looking at a radio repair or a replacement antenna box? I think there are two boxes that the antenna goes through before it reaches the head unit. Any experience on this matter, please?

N.B. On the C5, a similar issue is known to be the aerial base, which houses the booster. I presume the C6 does similar stuff to the signal, but through a separate box.

N.B. With the indicator on, I can hear the hissing get much better every time the light comes on! So interference or a lack of suppression is my guess, but how to regain this, I don't know.
