It seems funny that the AM band is the only one that is a problem. The AM band is the one that sets this radio apart, from the rest of them.

This is the only radio I have had where a transistor has failed. Usually the only problems I have with portable radios are scratchy controls. I cleaned the set with some Novus 1 and put it on Ebay. Someone grabbed it up within the first hour. People love these radios. I almost wish I had another one to fix up and sell.
