Ahhh....I have replaced the AAs and I still can't receive any
frequencies. Like I said, I don't have much technical knowledge.
What's this shorting of positive & negative contacts? And might it
help? I've taken out and re-installed the AAs many times now and it
hasn't helped. I can even take out all the batteries (Ds and AAs) and
run it off electricity and it still won't tune in any stations.

Thanks,
Joe


Check the buttons on the front panel carefully. Do they all pop up back to
the normal position? Do any of them feel less springy or kinda "strange"?
I don't know if a stuck key would cause this problem with your radio, but
it's worth considering.
