Hello all,
I know this is an old radio and topic,but,it is new to me.
I picked up mint DX-392 not too long ago,and want to eliminate the
muting while tuning around the shortwave bands.I have found several
different ways to do this,but each one requires a reset of the radio
as an end step.This is where the problem is,my DX-392 DOES NOT have a
reset button or switch ( I have disassembled the radio just to make
sure ),however,the boards are marked "Sangean ATS-818CS".
Does any one know how to reset this radio?, and what is the proper mod
to get rid of the muting.
Thank you for your time.
Paul.

No need for all that, There is a reset button inside the battery compartment. Push and hold a few seconds
