Flip up the antennae. Static will go away immediately.
I was messing around trying to figure this out, and was happy that I was not the only one with the issue. I had tried several settings and combinations of everything, and still had static. Flipped the antennae up, and it disappeared instantly! I flipped it down, and it cam back just the same.
ANTENNAS UP GUYS AND GALS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
