Howdy fellas -

Working on a 38-62 that gets stations strong except for one that I naturally want to hear, at 1440. I get all others above and below. I can hear this station just fine with all my other radios. Changed antennas, moved the radio to different parts of the house, all with the same results. Would a dirty contact on the tuner at this exact point be the cause? I've never run into this before where one specific station couldn't be heard. Not even a faint trace of it and another radio next it playing that location strong.

Regards,
Paul
