Default DX-440, no reception of AM or SW signals.

I got out my old but little used DX-440 and can get nothing but FM
stations. Does anyone have any suggestion(s) as to what the problem/fix
might be.? Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Is this an AM, FM, SW radio? Could try repeatedly changing the band switch
back and forth between detents. Contacts could be corroded or high
resistance. If you get to opening it up, you could try contact cleaner.

Another thought. Are there separate antenna inputs? Rod antenna for FM?
