Amp picking up radio
Can someone explain to me why my guitar amp is talking to me? It appears to be picking up some kind of radio frequency, and the guitar maybe acting as an aerial. How does this work?

There is a Radio Frequency Shield for your cables. This will stop your connecting wires from picking up these signals.
