Comments on the clue
1.Great anagram but needs a more interesting definition to be a great clue
2.Anagram fodder needs marshalling into a more convincing surface with a smoother relationship between wordplay and definition.
3.What is the "crap on radio"?
4.This choice of anagram doesn't really produce a coherent surface reading.
