CONFIRMATION STEP 3: ANTENNA SYSTEM SIMPLE INSPECTION[RADIO]

id0903e3804200

Note

•  Because the antenna system is equipped with a capacitor, the continuity cannot be checked. Therefore proceed to the following simple inspection.

1.  Turn the AM radio on.

2.  Tune to the frequency with no broadcast and listen for a buzzing sound.

3.  Turn a hand-held light on and shake it around the antenna rod (around 10—20 mm)

4.  If a whirring sound from the speaker synchronized to the work light movement is confirmed, the antenna system is normal.

Note

•  Use a fluorescent light type for the inspection. Accurate diagnostic cannot be done with an incandescent light.
