Needs some space to think
Hi all-
I have a Carver TX-11 that I've been using and enjoying for some years, but recently it started doing this weird thing where it will drop the signal and just play static, and the controls just stop responding. If you press any of the preset buttons, they light up for a moment but the station doesn't change; all other button presses do nothing (can't change station, etc.). Sometimes this will just happen for a few seconds over hours of listening, other times it will stay in this state for hours or days. Nothing external seems to be changing before it starts or after it stops; power-cycling does not do anything. Whenever it resumes normal functionality, nothing has changed — it remains on the same station, all the presets are still programmed, etc.
The behavior is a bit hard to describe, but it's in a phase where it's going in and out of this pretty frequently and I managed to grab a video.
It's here on YT, only 30 seconds but because I'm playing commercial radio I think it may get deleted from there automatically even though it's unlisted:
In case it does get deleted or this is easier, I uploaded to imgur with sound as well: https://imgur.com/a/ITXnNfD
Any idea what might be causing this? Thanks for your suggestions
