FM signal lost
Ladies and Gents,

On the way home from work I lost the FM signal.
Does anyone know what happened? the rest of the radio works.

Thank you

Fabio

The zombie apocalypse has reached the point where the radio stations have collapsed?

Nothing has fallen off ...
I have had issues with radio making strange sounds and the reception has never been great...

If the aerial lead is securely plugged in, and the base of the aerial still has a good ground connection to the wing (worth checking) it is most likely a fault with the radio, I'm afraid. Or those pesky zombies.

Thank you blackwolf.
I might have to spend the 250£ to buy the Nakatanenga aerial and a DAB radio...
I’m not the keen on it as last week I spent 460£ on the air con condenser.

Badger110,
Tell me about it, I’ve got 400£ deposit on a holiday booking in Italy that they won’t refund and now thinking of going to Portugal but things are getting worse there too.
Working in the aerospace industry isn’t great at the moment either...
Not sure of anything anymore.
