Default Help with Sony ICF-SW1000T with poor sensitivity

Perhaps someone has come across this.

My Sony SW1000T seems to have lost most of its sensitivity on AM.
Local MW stations still come in fine, but distant MW or SW is usually
weak at best, and often swamped by loud interference like you might
get from a TV. I am using batteries, and have tried it far from
obvious sources of interference with the same results. FM reception
is still fine, so I don't think it's a problem with the whip antenna
connection. Any ideas?

I can't even figure out how to open the thing. Removing the two big
screws on the back allows you to pull the top edge apart a bit, and
removing the tiny screws on the bottom loosens the tape mechanism, but
I can't get it fully opened without fear of breaking something.

TIA

Michael.
