Sanyo Radio
 

Yesterday at the Goodwill store I bought a Sanyo model 258OK
MW/FM/Cassette/SW1/SW2 radio.SW1 2.3 to 7.0 SW2 7.5 to 23.0

It is one of those kinds of radios which the power cord plugs into the
back of the radio (like my old Norelco electric shaver does) and the
other end of the cord plugs into a wall outlet.The cord wasen't with the
radio,but I bought the transistor radio anyway.

The radio doesn't work at all,it wont say a thing.I even tried some
fresh batteries with the radio.What could be wrong with the radio? I
guess I threw two dollars away on some more junk,eh? I dont know how to
work on radios.It would make a good doorstop anyway because it is so
heavy.

That could be used, along with an S50, but the S350 would need the 4
"D" sized batteries put in it first, because it is too
light-out-of-the-box !

Before canning it, try some non-lubricating tuner cleaner on the on/off
switch and bandswitches and working them.

I was able to bring a 1960 Blaupunkt Capri AM/LW portable back to life
with liberal applications of cleaner.

Try with a power cord. The BATT/AC switch might be stuck.
