Does your tuner have a signal strength meter? If so how do the readings vary between both times of day and other stations? Reception can change with conditions. Also what happens if you switch from stereo to mono? Is it quiet in mono? Switching to coax may or may not help. Coax will help with noise generated within your building but "generally" twin lead w/o a balun will get more of the signal to the tuner. Adding that switch may detract. Let us know what happens.
