Default Beginner Cant Pick up a Single Station in San Francisco

Yeah. I can get KGO pretty clearly.

Basically, all I hear on shortwave bands is a loud buzzing. I did
manage to barely pick up some gospel station from the US (but i couldnt
understand what was being said the quality was so poor).

I checked a couple of schedules, and put in frequencies where there
should be content, but nothing came through.

I also tried using a Sony AN-61 portable antenae, and that is when I
found the gospel station.

If you can't hear buzzing on the radio, in the middle of a city,
there's something wrong with it. Does the AM work? Can you get KGO?
If so, you may want to mess with the Ext Antenna jack, it could have
crud in it. A few cycles with a 3.5mm plug will clean it up.
