Radio cannot be turned off...

I've had this happen to me a few times. Try this, which has worked for me:

First, click the "play" button (just because the radio is playing doesn't mean it's "on." This might also explain why you can't change channels).

Next, change channels until you don't hear two at once. Note that if you're using one of my stations divided by years, you need to go to the correct year. In this case, 1945.

Once you're on the channel that's "stuck," you should be able to turn it off, or go to a new one.

One final piece of advice: Turn off the radio before saving a game. I find the problem doesn't occur if you do that.

Thanks for your reply. I tried all buttons to change something but it wouldn't turn off nor change the channel. As I said before, I loaded an earlier save game and when I saved the game and reloaded the same problem would occur again. I even repeated the game without turning the radio on.
I managed to play the game til the end in a long session until I received the message that the war is over. The problem wasn't fixed.
