Radio noise
1994 Toyota standard pickup, 4 cyl, engine is 22(something) I think.
Lately, any radio station which has marginal signal develops a tremendous static, which gets louder and increases in frequency as engine is revved etc.
Is this the radio, or something I can fix in the ignition?
Thanks for any help!

Done deal!
I picked up some good wires, and in the process of changing them out, found that on one plug, the whole end of the plug ( the metal connector) was snapped off. It is still inside the wire connector. I don't think I broke it. I suspect it was accidentally broken about 3 weeks ago at the shop where I had the exhause manifold replaced. ( It had a broken bolt, and was warped). The radio noise started right about that time.
Any way, new plugs and new wires....problem solved!
I really appreciate the advice available on these forums.
