Sta 820 fm signal weak on start up

Hickory · 23rd February 2021, 01:51 AM

Hello, I have a Realistic sta 820 with fm radio signal dilemma. On startup the signal is weak, after 2ish minutes the signal is strong. Fm stereo is working when cold. Any ideas?
Thanks

Check the AM/FM switch for bad contacts first then round the input first section for HR soldered joint.

There are lots of possibilities after that.
