I bought this for my vintage receiver:
Works great, but I have it pinned to the back of my stereo cabinet. I want to get a longer one so I can tape it to a big window nearby. I know I'll probably get minimal increase in reception but I figured why not.
Problem is I can only find them with a...
I have a fisher 400 receiver. The phono stereo and aux output has no issues and the FM radio has no issues _most_ of the time, but sometimes it will make a popping sound and the sound will increase by a lot. Its only the radio. Its annoying because I'll have the volume up and then it will pop...
I remember this so well, and I'm surprised it didn't stir up any reaction. Over night, Alternative disappeared almost completely across the North American airwaves. I remember this so well, because I was flying out to San Francisco for a training course in San Jose. The morning I left, I driove...
I have this mid 40's tube radio console. I bought it about 24 years ago in Des Moines for very little. I used it for a couple of years and haven't plugged it in for at least 15 years. Since joining AK I've learned to bring up old equipment on a variac. I like this radio and plan to clean it up...

Hi all,
I just bought an old but brand new Tivoli 'Model One' radio (platinum series - yay!). I suspect this thing is near 20 years old. Stations come in and play clearly, but... while I'm still dialing in a station, the audio output can be quite scratchy/noisy. The volume knob works...
Twice during the past few years I’ve “heard” a radio station in my teeth while falling asleep. There is a 50,000 Watt station 26 miles from my house. Both times I heard it I was dozing off and I heard the station identify itself during a commercial break. I did a little research on it and I...
When do you primarily listen to the radio? Do you prefer the daytime programming full of commercials or the generally less-commercial night-time listening? Do you prefer the fidelity and lack of noise on FM or the silky warmth and power of AM? Do you listen to AM stereo? Do you like FM mono...

Hey all,
I recently picked up a Marantz 2270 that was in excellent, unrestored condition. I have completed a full restore of the unit, but I am getting absolutely ZERO from any of the radio functions on it. When I turn the volume all the way up, I get a very light pulsing sound, but no static...
Working on a Motorola Model: 13KT15CW Chassis: Ch= HS-677. Just finished recapping the filter caps, all paper caps, and cleaning tube leads. The amp sounds great but the radio needs some tweaking. Generally it works pretty well but the issue at hand is that I've got a couple of strong signal...
Hello to you all,
I could not find a topic about it (did not show up in search) so.... I was wandering... How do you all treat DAB+ in stead of Analog FM Radio.
Here is my reason why i'am asking:
In the old country (Europe, specific The Netherlands) They plan and work hard to Stop regular...

Hi all, i recently picked up a Grundig KS 732U solid state console with Turntable at the thrift store, it was powered up by another guy so i did some poking around and discovered no sound at all, light in the cab would come on but TT wouldn't power and couldn't even get static from the radio...

Hello everybody! I was given as a gift an old stationary radio made in Romania. Aesthetic it looks good for its age. I switched it on but it was heard only a noise and very weak sound. Both potentiometers for tone and volume were broken. There is a liniar design and I used one of those that I...

The radio is in good general condition a bit dirty... The radio works surprisingly well for a antique... It has a nice warm sounding ambience... Just...
Recapping an old Sanyo channel master portable 6 transistor radio, has real low volume so I figured I’d recap it. I’m inexperienced in recapping things and got this for cheap, so it would make a great starting project-I already know how to solder things. it’s got about 5-6 of these green plastic...
Hey all, just picked up a 1970 Marantz Model 27 and I'm testing my hand at trying to get it cleaned up. Its fully functioning but definitely needs some TLC. Big issue I am running into is where to get replacement spring clips and FM bar for the back (see photos). Any idea on compatible...
I was reading the Sunday Chicago Tribune and Bob Weber's Motormouth column https://wheels.rep-am.com/2021/05/motormouth-pulling-the-plug-on-am/ . It's a column where people send in car repair questions. One person noted in his car that there was no AM radio. Bob answered: Electric motors...
