Grundig

Hello everyone. I have a grundig radio and I have some problems I would like to sort out. First is I can only pick up one station on FM with a large antena. The next is a hummmm when I turn the radio on. I believe that is the capacitators right ? And where can I get them ? Thank you for any help.

Welcome to our little forum!

I would say for one that your electrolytics in the power supply are failing.
Also, the German capacitors do tend to short, or, leak. Electrically, that is.
Sounds like the set is due for a complete restoration.
Antique Electronics Supply, Radio Daze, are two places where you can buy capacitors.
I'd also reccommend you pick up the schematic for this set.
These German sets are complicated to work on.

No guarantees, but, you could try Nostalgia Air on the internet.
I can't get to my extra schematics right now, Or, I'd look.
Can anyone help him, please?
Thanks.
