Pressing the FM buttons firmly all the way in is how they operate and if any stations have been stored in them, you should see the tuning needle move along the dial. To set a station, tune manually to that frequency, pull the desired preset button out and then push back in firmly. Station is now set on that particular band. It probably needs a bit of mechanical exercise to get things switching as they should. PS - just noticed the LW button is in the "out" position where it would be if tuning to a station to set a preset. It won't change from LW with this button out, it needs to be pushed all the way in so another band can be selected by pressing any of the FM bands.

Button 5 (REV) is purely for reversing the direction of the tape travel - it has nothing to do with the radio function. To select a FM station you need to press one of the FM buttons - this will tune in the preset station that the PO has assigned to that button. To manually tune in a FM station you then need to find the station by turning 11 - the manual tuning knob. Not sure how you then set the pre-set station once you have found it, but no doubt it will be explained in the manual. That is how the radios in my 145 and 164 were back in the day. Alan: Just noticed you said the FM buttons are not working. When you press one of the buttons the red indicator bar on the tuning scale should 'jump' to the pre-set station that that button is tuned to. This should happen on all buttons, if not, then the buttons are not working, hth.

IPA (isopropanol/isopropyl alcohol) aka;
Brake cleaner/degreaser Panel wipe Electical contact cleaner Screenwash Hand steriliser Surgical spirit at varying dilutions and with different dyes, it crops up all over the place. Once you know what this stuff is really used in, you'll save a fortune. Also replaces anything that uses meths. |
