MX 113 Tuner Problem

[mingodog]

Ok I plugged up the mx-113 that I picked up yestreday, and only 1 fm station comes in. AM works great.. I have a regular fm loop stereo antenna (nothing special, but works good with my other receivers).. What kind of problem can I be looking at ?? all other functions work fine, could the FM tuner be totally shot ?

Sounds like a tuner problem, either an RF stage or and IF integrated circuit, this type of problem requires a good generator and scope.

Thanks, Now is it somehing that is worth fixing, (if that's the case), or is it just cheaper to just buy another working unit ?.

Ballpark fix would be $100 to $150 including an alignment and cleanup. You would then know you had a MX113 the worked right and made specs..
