I have a Technika DAB-206 Digital Radio approx 2 years old. About a month ago it developed a constasnt low noise hum when turned of. I left unplugged for approx two days and when I plugged it back in the hum had gone. This lasted approx 2 weeks and it has now started again. Anyone got any thoughts please.

Hi nicholasharp...

You did not say which model you had so I copied what I could find in manuals for Technika MP3 Players. I am sure you will find the user manual to explain when your MP3 player is fully charged.
I will also include the generic way to hook up and download songs to your MP3 player.

Hi,

Here is a tip that I wrote about refrigerators and the fan noisethat they develop sometimes...

RefrigeratorFan Noise

they jsut dont make them to last anymore, technology is advancing faster and faster we do need stuff to work that long anymore

Possible shorted power supply capacitor or bad diode.

wrap aluminum foil around the power cord

Sounds like u need a color wheel

I left the unit unplugged over night, plugged it back in the next day and still had the same problem.

This humming noise is the cause of a bad ground. try a new grounding location. The shorter the ground wire the better. Make sure the connection is metal to metal. I have had the same problem out of competition systems. Good Luck

Sadly, the plasma screen is failing. The green strip is no longer functioning properly and the failures will continue to progress.

If still under warranty, get it exchanged.
