AM Radio Problem

2001 9-3 SE. The AM radio reception is lousy. Both FM and the CD player work fine. Mostly just static on the AM radio, sometimes stations appear at the wrong frequency (e.g. 850 station appears at 860 on the tuner), infrequently the reception is OK.
The radio antenna appears to be fine, it works well for FM reception.
Is there some connection to the On Star system? I removed the On Star antenna and replaced it with a dummy, but can't say that radio fault started at that time. I would replace the old On Star antenna if I could, but I threw it away. I haven't gone through the process of decommissioning the On Star system outlined in a TSB.
Is there a shop that repairs these radios. I checked with BBA Reman and they don't think they can help.
