The reason your guitar amp is picking up radio is probably due to the coils in the guitar pickups. They will be in sympathetic resonance with the frequency of the radio station you're hearing. Your amplifier will amplify the signal to a high enough level, and the audio portion will be demodulated from the AM carrier by the simple fact that the speaker cannot output the higher RF signals - it acts as a discriminator. Basically, your guitar amp can be a radio receiver if used differently.
mine does this too! have you ever wondered why do you plug-in hands-free on your phone to listen to radio? its because speakers can pick up radio signals.
same thing happend to my guitar just today i posted a video on it just now except you have to out the chord on the input and mute the strings watch my video to understand
either your guitar pickups are messed up or you cable is improperly shielded. Most likely the guitar pickups are picking up RF signals. I have had this problem when i wound my own pickups but not from a professionally made guitar.
ha! thats crazy.. never had that done with mine. but i use an fm tramsitter in my car so i can plug up my ipod and play music over a dead radio frequency and sometimes i pick up the cars next to me radio kinda weird.. when ur listenin to def leppard then all a sudden a girl jammin out to miley cyrus comes over ur speakers too.
Ah very annoying but i know what this is (dutch radio :P yeah haha). My speakerset ( Logitech Z3-e ) subwoofer picks up radio signals. you can't do anything about it, just means that the product is not shielded enough.

It's a problem with the "ground" of the amp. Now it pick's up radiowaves.
