I have a Nissan Car radio with shortwave, and its sensitivity suddenly
dropped on AM & SW. FM still ok.



What to do?


Front end blown. Common problem. Parts may be unobtainium.

If it's blown, then it isn't likely to be something exotic (or at least,
something that can't be replaced with something available).

The problem is likely getting at it, not just having to get the radio out
of the car, but then into the radio. If it's surface mount, it will be
even more work to change the device.
