Question Amp question

I bought a used Road Glide that has the stage 2 Rockford Fosgate 2 speaker upgrade and Harley amp mounted in the saddlebag. It’s got what I learned is the common issue of the amp interfering with radio signals. I was surprised since my old Street Glide had Hogtunes amp and speakers with zero issue. I don’t do playlists or own a computer to make a USB with tunes so…can I just unplug the amp connection by the saddlebag to turn it off and have it be more like a stage 1 upgrade or will that not help?

I know I could just try it and check things out but I don’t know a darn thing about amps and everything I read makes zero sense to me. I don’t want to mess anything up so hopefully someone on here with know how can give me some help.

You wont be able to just unplug it, you will get no sound.

find someone in your area that knows what they are doing and let them help you. It will be money well spent.
