I enjoy using band in the box thru my guitar amp, but when I do that I get a local radio station, and they dont even play the kind of music I like ! Now my playing aint very purty, but it sore isnt with this radio coming thru. anyone had that problem and know of a way to shield against it. Thanks in advance for any help or advice.

How are you inputting BIAB into the amp? Are you connecting a computer or audio recorder to the amp? Try using the best quality audio cable available, from the computer/recorder to the amp, with the shortest length necessary. If the radio pickup can be traced to the device playing the music back wrap a metal screen around it, to act as a shield, but allow air flow.

Also make sure that the signal going to the amp from BIAB is as loud as you can get it, so that you will not have to turn the amp up as much (which amplifies the RF interference more).
