That's the antenna trimmer screw. It usually winds up being screwed in clockwise almost all the way for best reception. Make sure you have a good antenna connection. The screw is adjusted by finding a weak station around 1400 and adjusting to maximum volume. Your radio, however, may be on the fritz.
