Is taking off the antenna similar to turning the sensitivity
all the way down or does it have a different result? like
stronger reception but better interference rejection..
Taking the antenna off will have a different effect. I have done this many times on the MRF 250 and it worked great afterwards. Some components will not operate if there is any RF interference at all. I have experienced this with many different components and I would suspect the Sony is one of these.
