    Radio interference from engine

    I have a Blaupunkt Casablanca. My engine causes static in my radio signal that gets worse as the revs get higher. Is there anything I can do to stop this problem? Thanks

    Check your ground wire, make sure it's down to bare metal.

          I used the original speaker wire, I've had the unit for almost a year now and it's been doing this since the start. I just finally got annoyed enough to do something about it. I'll check the ground, thanks.
