Threaded Mode
My Philco 40-190 only gets one station.

I have a 40-190 that with one button pushed (the first) receives one station loud and clear all along the dial, the tuner has no effect. With the last button pushed the same station comes in at each end of the dial with nothing in between. The other buttons or no buttons pushed get nothing but static all through the dial. I sure could use some help. Thanks.

If you're still there, Baspas...

The last button (first button from the right) needs to be pushed in on the 40-190 in order to be able to tune in stations. If you push in any of the other buttons, you won't be able to tune in anything.
