20 Most Recent Grundig G4000A FM/AM Radio Questions & Answers

You have buttons to press to change the modulation. FM covers regular FM band: 76 MHz (Japan) to 108 MHz and the higher frequency ones used for Air and Weather. AM covers the Long waves (in Europe), the regular AM band (520 kHz-1700 kHz), and the Short wave bands 2MHz 30 MHz It seems that you can tune the frequency in by direct entry with the number keys. I do not see the image of the face of the radio but from my experience with many Grundig/Eton you should have two buttons with arrows (left A and Right Arrow) or two buttons with + and Minus (not the volume buttons). If you are in SW, pressing one of the buttons changes the tuning to the adjacent Meter band.

HOW TO SET THE SLEEP TIMER Press the SLEEP button over and over. Each press changes the amount of time the radio will play before shutting off automatically, 60 through 0 minutes. To make the radio work without a timer, try pressing the ON button longer than you usually do.

Hello,
If the internal antenna is broken that means the ferrite bar is broken,that does imply that the wiring around it is cut. If the two parts are not removed, the antenna may still be able to perform correctly (just as two magnets put end to end). You can try to put it in the vicinity of another radio to see if there is any resonance effect.
Hope it helps.

Hello,
If it can fixed at a reasonable price, it might be better to try to have it repaired.
Hope it helps.

Hello,
The wires that feed the speaker are usually attached on the back of the conical part of the speaker. They are usually soldered on two terminals.
Hope it helps.

Hello,
Yes it will if you know the frequencies and the broadcast times of the radio you want. During the night the best broadcast bands are the longer wavelengths.
49 m from 6390 kHz and up
41 m from 7600 kHz and up
31 m from 9200 kHz and up
25 m from 12121 kHz and up

During the day Use the shorter wavelengths 11m, 16m, 21/22 m
Unfold the whip antenna, or use the wire antenna if you have one.
Reception is affected by the electrical charge denisty of the ionosphere. It depends on the solar activity (sun spot flares and such activities).

You will hear Radio China international all over the spectrum, Deutch Welle, Radio Canada International, Radio Havana, and a plethora of Religious brodcasts. If like me you miss Radio Moscow, it is now called Goloss Rossya (The voice of Russia). Don't get upset, I was joking.

Good listening.

Once you turn the unit on, the battery indicator should disappear. Make sure the batteries are inserted correctly. With six AAs, I've put them in backwards on more than one occasion.

Hope this helps.

The thing you are describing is a ferrite rod. It is the aerial that is used for LW and MW reception. The telescopic aerial on top is used for FM.

Providing it is a clean break and you haven't lost any parts of the ferrite rod, just tape it back together. It shouldn't have too great an effect on the reception.

Hope this helps,

Matt.
