I have a Sony ICF-SW77 (over 10 years old) with an audio problem. Lots of
static (pops and hissing), like from a loose connection, not on the air
static.

I saw an article describing failed ribbon cables inside the radio. The
article mentioned that this was a manufacturing defect and mentioned a
repair kit.

I'm trying to make sure that I'll be doing the right thing to repair this
very expensive radio.

Aby help or suggestions will be appreciated.

Thanks,

John
