Mine has the pot and I just turn it fully anticlockwise as the set just seems to perform better like that. Otherwise spending time listening to interstation noise is something that I tend not to do, it doesn't bother me and in some ways is all part of the 'fun' of listening to a vintage radio. But seriously as I see it there are two choices, adjust the control to reduce interstation noise, or for best 'on station' performance.
