3850, weird problem with AM stations
Posted by 97eclipseRS, Sep-05-02 02:46 AM
i just noticed today, while reprogramming my AM stations, that the reciever isn't tuning to the exact station. for example if the station is 1010, when i try to scan to it, it'll hit 1008 and not pick up 1010 as if there isn't a station there. this is true for all the stations, the tuner will tune to 2 or 3 stations away. it still picks up the station(with a bit of static) but it seems really weird. my HU doesn't have a "manual" way to tune it, ithe tune buttons just scan to the next station that it picks up a signal from. BTW - FM seems to work just fine. tia

sounds like a problem with your antenna maybe. might wanna make sure its not loose in the back of your deck. or maybe just replace it.

What kind of HU do you have?

Hmm, maybe the HU, cuz I could've sworn AM channels went in multiples of 10. So tuning to 1008 would be impossible, no?

my HU is a clarion dx515. it's weird. the stations still work, they're just a little off. weird. FM stations work just fine.
