my BM 8000 has a couple of issues:
first the start-up:
when turning on the unit I have to hold down any source key (fm, tp1/2, ph) until the unit fires up.
we are talking about a US model which I operate with a step-down transformer and keep wondering
if the issue is cause by a lack of current, supplied by that step-down transformer and can a change of fuses
help here ??
second the fm pre-set memory loss:
after confirming the 5V supply voltage at 9IC6 is present I suspected a faulty IC, replaced that one with the same issue remaining ?
I can tune in fm station in auto and manual tuning mode and try the programming procedure but no luck,
it remains at 87.5 kHz.
what did I miss here ?
would be great if some of you could shed some light on those issues
thank you
