Hi forum members,
In the past i have had many helpful hints from generous forum members in diagnosing and solving issue related to most of my electrical things.
Fyi, i have been keeping this unit of Sony radio cassette player as the cassette belting has worn off but the radio has been working fine before. Recently, out of a sudden i found out i can't get any radio reception at all (no signal from FM,MW or SW band) except some buzzing warp noise from the speakers.
I opened the casing inside and checked for any dry solder, burned component or loose wires but there is none found. Connected the external rod type antenna and adjust to many other direction but i can hear some warbled noise, not very clear but i think those are radio signal. Somehow i believe this could be due to a deteriorating FM ic or some component that i missed.
Hopefully someone experience enough in radio frequency detection can kindly guide and help me to diagnose and find the lost radio signal. Hope to revive this radio instead of throwing to the dump.
