I've been picking up radio (RF) interference on the Bright channel on my 200 B-1 (Mainly foreign language - and not always the same language, either). I tried a number of suggestions, but nothing worked. I picked up a tip over at the fender Forum (FDP). Several folks over there had the same problem with their Fender amps (didn't say how old they were). Anyway.......One person suggested using a really long guitar cable and putting some coils in it (to act as an RF "Choke"). I tried it the past two nights - and it worked!!! I used an 18 foot cable and just loosely coiled it on the floor in front of the amp. I even tested it by uncoiling it - and the interference came back. I hope this is the solution. Just thought I'd pass this along......
