Default AM Station by my house, anything I can do?

Hehe... Google pulls up all kinds of stuff, even this decade-old thread.

I also live in Garland, and when I turn my computer speakers' volume all the way up, I can hear KRLD on them - but only while my hand is still on the volume dial. As soon as I break physical contact with the speaker, it goes silent. Sometimes it picks up reception all on its' own, which really freaked me out while I'm in bed or another room... until I figured out what it is. I think it's kind of cool, but KRLD will hook you up with a signal blocker if you request it - or you could get something at Radioshack.

would some of you all.

I have an AM radio station VERY close to my house. Less then a quarter mile.

I hear the station in my computer speakers, my telephone headset, etc. Also
on my television, anything connected via RCA or S-Video jacks gets bad
interference like diagonial lines. I have cable TV, and it seems to resist
the signal better.

I was wonder if there was anything I could do to combat this?

I just a casual scanner user, so I'm not real expericenced in radio. If you
do have any suggestions, please go easy on me with the high tech radio stuff
hehe.
