Within the past two months I ordered the same Rico reeds and found the exact same thing, terrible whistling, squeaking too. I tried several different mouthpieces, different reed placements, nothing helped.
After a few days of this, in frustration, I got out another new reed and soaked it in water for about 2 hours this time before initially playing on it. I was surprised to find this helped a lot. No more whistling/squeaking except by my fault.
Could it have something to do with humidity?
