Well. One problem I have found is that the downloaded manual isn't the exact one for the model I've got.
I noticed mine uses power transistors on the output for the speaker but the manual I've got shows the circuit using an IC.
Also the rec board is not the one I've got a diagram of - though it's close. I know I can find some info on the ones I've got on Youtube and here tho'.
Last night I observed that the aerial makes no difference. It still picks up a few stations, but this is irrespective of whether or not the antenna is inserted. I thought that was interesting.
Eventually I'll get some progress done.
