Hi all
My first post here so allow me to say hi to everyone.

My first post is a need for advice, I was given a Kchilbo KK-9906S FM/AM and SW radio. Years ago I heard that you could solder a wire across something in a radio which gave a better frequency coverage.

Does anyone know of this and could you tell me how to do this please.

many thanks

Donny

 

Have you got a schematic? That would involve the tuning range - it is a bit hard to imagine how an added wire might extend the range.

 

No it doesnt, sadly cant find one either...

 

I used to belong to a Yahoo group for owners of a particular model of Radio Shack communications receiver. That group had dozens of modifications ranging from the simple like "snip the purple wire to cut background hiss", to extremely detailed capacitance changes for various reasons, as well as schematics of the receiver, things like that.

My search just now didn't find a Yahoo group for your radio, but maybe if you started one, you might attract others who have had success modifying the radio.
