Default Sony ICF-SW30 - No AM


wrote in message
oups.com...
I know it's old but my ICF-SW30 lost it's AM and I was wondering if
anyone had a suggested fix.

One day I turned it on and got nothing but light static on the AM
band. EVERYTHING else works just fine - clock, alarms, sleep timer,
FM, and all the SW bands.

I took it apart and reseated the few connections there are. I've also
reset it. Right now I have the batteries out and am waiting 3-4 hours
before resetting again (based on another post for a different radio).

Any ideas?


Buy a new Sony radio? An SW-35 or better yet an SW-7600GR?
Your SW30 is pretty old. If you don't buy a new Sony now you may not be
able to buy one in the future.
