By kills the radio do you mean it really makes sensitivity low?
If yes...that's the purpose and this is the only way I can listen to my local station as AVC does not seem to be enough.
Otherwise I leve it on LD.

While tuning the radio, do you have crackling or is it quiet?
I never put time into it, maybe it is just dirt in the cap (I never took it out to clean).
It is crackling while the cap is being otated but when tuned it is fine. The crackling is like "hrrrrr" , not separate poppings.
