I have a Sharp mini Stereo model CD-BA150 which the customer is complaining that the AM band will bring in the local channel only. I checked the loop antenna and it has continuity. This loop antenna feeds through a coil (transformer) into the AM-FM tuner IC, LA1832. I checked the coil too for continuity and it appears to be ok. Can only gues that the IC isn't amplifying the AM- RF. IC has B+ and the FM band works ok. Does anyone have this chip or knows where to get one with very reasonable shipping to Canada? It is an LA1832, 24 pin dip. -- Gary McCartney McCartney Electronics Guelph Ontario Canada Est. 1984 email: gary (at) number63.ca ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Lost Password: http://www.tech-assist.org and select "Login Problems?".
