Some time ago I picked up a Sangean ATS-803A off ebay only to
discover that
it was stone deaf off the attached telescoping antenna in the
SW
bands. I
replaced that with a longer one, same problem. I then hooked
it up
to one
of those Radio Shack amplified shortwave antennas (also from
ebay),
and
voila! It works well. Most probably an indicator that
something is
blown
inside. I sent it to Radio Shack who "tuned & tweaked" it &
sent it
back,
still stone deaf. After chatting with several other owners of
this
receiver
on the Yahoo group, I decided to take the plunge & try another
one.
Boy am I glad I did! This second one is absolutely amazing!
So
far, in
just a coupla hours twiddling the knobs, I've received nearly
40 SW
stations!
Now I'm looking to send off my first one to someone competent
that
knows
what they're doing to get it repaired, as I'm incompetent to
(no
knowledge
of electronics or soldering, and I'm too old & my hands are too
shaky for
delicate work).
Anybody know anybody . . . ?
I'm happy with the one I've got, but it's nice to see
that you have one that works now.

yes I have one, they are very good radios indeed
