My Yamaha R-V1103 will not pick up fm stations. There is static with no antenna connected and absolutely nothing when connected. I'm using a PAL female to F-connector (coax) female to standard rabbit ear antenna.

SOURCE: yamaha htr 5240 receiver, need fm antenna adapter

this is your manual http://www2.yamaha.co.jp/manual/pdf/av/english/re/HTR-5230.pdf

this is the 300 ohm adapter you need from radio shack and just install some small gauge speaker wire to it. or just splice the one that came with your receiver.

SOURCE: how to get am/fm stations to play. I have a hook

you can buy one online or you can make one out of audio, lamp, or antenna wire. cut about 10 ft of wire and split the wire about 1/4 to 1/3 of the way. that is to pull the two ends at one end of the wire in opposite directions. the wire looks like a T. the bottom of the T hooks to the receiver, the other end spreads out along the wall. the 2 ends at the rec. hook to fm and gnd or am and gnd. i hope i have made this clear.
reply if you need more help.
please rate bama46 and have a great day, thanks

yes their is but you would need a local man to do it this is not something you can do yourself ,also of course it depends on the fault as some faults may cost more to fix than the set is worth .try a length of wire just pushed into the aerial plug and if its still the same then ask a local man but if its all microchips inside then it cannot be repaired very easly .could just be a broken wire on the inside of the set from the aerial socket to the board ,something right simple and a two minute job to repair

although I would be surprised if the signal you have would be correct to supply your fm tuner, you may be better off with something like this (depends on how good your fm signal is locally) http://cgi.ebay.com/FM-AERIAL-KIT-RADIO-RECEIVERS-BALUN-UNIVERSAL-/310283558296?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_3&hash=item483e575d98#ht_2068wt_876
Alternatively, and I know this sounds crude, poke a long piece of wire into the centre of the aerial socket on your tuner and pin it to the wall or a door frame, it often works if you have a decent signal to begin with.

2014grand caravan fm stations all static

Most likely the antenna lead has come unhooked from the back of the radio. AM stations will pick up with the internal working of the radio, but FM stations have to have a working antenna to work. Also make the antenna is tight to the vehicle .

Radio has static and tries to pick up just one station a m and fm. 2005 Acura Can it be antennae

The alternator is most likly the problem. If it was ok before and you had the alternator replaced the problem should be the new alternator. The above answer is if static is your problem. If you can not pick up stations there is a good chance that you have a antenna problem.

Do i need an antenna to recieve FM radio?

Yes. Stereo receivers typically have either screw terminals or a coax connector on the back for an FM antenna. You can use a TV antenna for this since FM radio is in the middle of the old TV VHF band. However, if the station you want is nearby, you can pick it up with a piece of telephone hookup wire (solid 28 gauge copper) connected to the antenna screw terminal (strip the insulation off the end of the wire that is connected to the terminal, but leave the rest of the insulation on). If you have only a coax connector, slip the end of the wire into the center terminal on the connector. The wire ideally should be about 30" long, but you may get by with less.

For more distant stations, you may want a long-range TV antenna.

FM antenna is not providing reception, despite cable connected to powered antenna amplifier. TV also connected to powered antenna amplifier (splitter) works fine. FM mode produces only static. I purchased...

If I understand your setup, you've connected the receiver antenna terminal to the output of the antenna amplifier. If this is true, I'd suggest trying the receiver using a plain old FM dipole antenna (available at Radio Shack and other stores) or even just a piece of wire hooked to the antenna terminal. You should be able to pick up some local FM stations then.

What might be happening is that the FM is being filtered out by the amplifier. Some amps made mainly as a TV signal booster have an FM trap designed to block the FM broadcast band. In the analog broadcast days, the FM band was right near the sound part of a TV signal, and the trap was there to prevent interference. It may be filtering out your FM band.It may also be possible that you're just overloading the FM antenna input with the amplified signal. Sometimes a signal can be too strong. Using a simple wire antenna will let you test the receiver by itself.

Other than connecting an antenna you shouldn't have to do any setup for FM reception. If you still get no stations at all when using a simple antenna, then the receiver may need service. But I doubt Circuit City would have sold a floor model that was defective, even at the very end, unless it was clearly marked as such and sold "as-is". I'm pretty sure you'll find that the receiver works with an antenna made for FM.

I can receive FM stations properly. I cannot receive AM stations at all. Only a static sound. I disconnected the AM antenna leads and used an Ohm Meter. The meter read full continuity when I touched...

you may be in an area where am stations don't come in,, am uses straight lines of frequency where FM uses a modulated signal, which travels much farther, I bought a antenna signal booster from radio shack for a few dollars , and was able to get the stations, some pretty static filled though, but the more local ones came in ok, another thing to check is that the unit is plugged into a grounded receptacle ,
