e86 coupe Constant Static Radio

Whenever I turn on my radio I always get a constant static and it can never find a station

I replaced the antenna and I still get the static.

I even replaced the head unit and got a new harness but there still is a constant static.

The aux works completely fine, but i cant figure out why it cant find a station. I have even changed the "area" on the Carver system and nothing changed. Does anyone have an idea to why this might be happening???

I have always had terrible reception but I chalked it up to my stubby antenna, one day out of curiosity I replaced it with the factory one with no discernible improvement. Now my factory aux is crapping out (not sure why but something has happened to the port).

How do you change the “area”? I haven’t come across that before.

Thanks

There's an antenna "diversity" box in the trunk and another wire antenna under the rear bumper cover.
