I was receiving fm stations between 87.8 and 108, but now I can only tune to 76.0-90.0, with no reception. How can I change the frequency range back?

SOURCE: Need to change FM frequency steps on Yamaha RX-495 Receiver

I don't know how to change the tuning step from .2 Mhz to .1 Mhz, but whatever you do - don't adjust those tunable slugs! If you are told to - I would be very suspect of any procedure that says you must. Those types of coils are adjusted by a threaded iron core that when turned by the slot on top, either raise up from or slide down into the coil. Furthermore, use of a metal screwdriver is a big no-no to make those adjustments. Specially made fiberglass tweaker tools are used to adjust or tune these iron slugs, and often require special equipment (o-scope, DMM, etc) or other specific detailed procedure for proper setup. Fiberglass is used as it does not interact with the iron slug like a metal screwdriver would (appearing as more metal) by affecting the magnetic field of the coil. It has nothing to due with electric shock protection. Good luck!

SOURCE: FM Tuner not receiving - Yamaha R7 receiver

Take the cover off and look at the cable that connects the tuner to the main board. Make sure it is connected straight and tight. Make sure all screws in the back are tight, just in case it is a grounding issue. Iff all checks out and you still have issues, replace your tuner.

Pyle PBMSPG190 can't scan fm stations

If you're having trouble scanning FM radio stations on your Pyle PBMSPG190, there are a few things you can try:

- Check your antenna: Make sure your FM antenna is properly connected to your radio and is positioned in a location with good reception. If your antenna is damaged, you may need to replace it.
- Check the FM frequency range: Make sure that the FM frequency range of your radio is set correctly for your location. In some cases, FM frequencies may differ depending on your country or region.
- Check for interference: Electronic devices such as smartphones, tablets, or other nearby radios may cause interference with your radio's ability to pick up FM stations. Try turning off nearby electronics or moving your radio to a different location to see if this improves reception.
- Manually tune to specific frequencies: If the automatic scan is not working, try manually tuning your radio to specific FM frequencies to see if you can pick up any stations.

If none of these steps work, it's possible that there may be a problem with the radio's internal components. In that case, you may want to contact Pyle customer support for further assistance.

DEH-P7900 BT US model. Isthere any way I could change the tuner frequency to european one. Thanks.

The DEH-P7900BT is almost identical to the DEH-P85BT sold in Europe.

This is a US model and will tune most AM/FM stations in the UK/Europe. The FM broadcast band is 87.8 to 108.0 MHz. so it will not pick up any FM stations outside this range. Also, the tuning is in odd increments (such as 96.1, 96.3, 96.5, etc.) so some stations with even frequencies will be slightly distorted, depending on the power of the signal the station generates.


I found this bit of info for you but ill keep looking and let you know what i find out.
Also have you tried it in europe to see if it does work or not let me know ok

Fm radio works fine but the dab will not find any stations, I have tried different aerials and still no good

What's the make & model of the radio?
Most DAB/FM radios work from the same antenna, so if you receive FM stations, you should receive DAB stations in your area.
It should be noted that DAB transmitters work on lower power than conventional FM transmitters, and so you may be in a weak reception area (for DAB). It should also be noted that DAB uses different frequencies than regular FM stations and household appliances such as laptops,WiFi, microwave ovens, etc can affect DAb reception.

SW reception is very poor. Can receive no Ham operators only powerful broadcasts like Havanna. AM not bad, FM fair.

SW transmission depends on an atmospheric layer called the ionosphere. The density of ionized atoms present in the layer is dependent on the light from the sun and on solar activity. The rule of thumb is to tune in to the larger meter bands ( 49m, 41 m, 31m, 25m ) in the evening and at night and the shorter meter (31m, 25, 21, ...16, 10) bands in the day.

To tune in to a particular signal you need to know the exact frequency and the broadcast time. You can search the Internet for the frequencies of a particular radio station and the times when that station is broadcasting in direction of your region.

How do I preset the tuner for radio stations. I've never had a problem doing this with any other stereo. But what I think should work isn't!

Not very specific. Do you have the manual?

The following is from a VSX-03TXH manual. It ain't pretty but it may help.

I'm posting it in multiple parts due to space contraints.

Chapter 6:

Using the tuner

Listening to the radio

The following steps show you how to tune in to FM and

AM radio broadcasts using the automatic (search) and

manual (step) tuning functions. If you already know the

frequency of the station you want, see Tuning directly to a

station below. Once you are tuned to a station you can

memorize the frequency for recall later-see Saving

station presets below for more on how to do this.

1 Press the FM/AM button to select the tuner.

2 Use the FM/AM button to change the band (FM or

AM), if necessary.

Each press switches the band between FM and AM.

3 Tune to a station.

There are three ways to do this:

Automatic tuning

To search for stations in the currently selected band,

press and hold TUNE ?©/?? for about a second. The

receiver will start searching for the next station,

stopping when it has found one. Repeat to search for

other stations.

Manual tuning

To change the frequency one step at a time, press

TUNE ?©/??.

High speed tuning

Press and hold TUNE ?©/?? for high speed tuning.

Release the button at the frequency you want.

Improving FM stereo sound

If the TUNED or STEREO indicators don't light when

tuning to an FM station because the signal is weak, press

the MPX button to switch the receiver into mono

reception mode. This should improve the sound quality

and allow you to enjoy the broadcast.

Using Neural THX

This feature uses Neural Surround™, THX® technology to

achieve optimal surround sound from FM radio.

• While listening to FM radio, press AUTO/DIRECT for
Neural THX listening.

radio stations with sufficiently strong signals
for good reception.
% Press LOCAL repeatedly to select the
desired setting.
FM: OFF—LEVEL1—LEVEL2—LEVEL3—
LEVEL4
MW/LW: OFF—LEVEL1—LEVEL2

the unit automatically searches for a different
station in the same network.
1 Use MULTI-CONTROL to select AF in the
function menu.
2 Press MULTI-CONTROL to turn AF on.
# To turn off, press MULTI-CONTROL again.
