How can I improve my radio reception?
Straighten the power cable as much as possible to optimise reception. The radio power cable is also the FM antenna
Try a reset. Turn off your system and unplug from power for 60 seconds. Once reconnected to power, check to see if the reception has improved
Why does the radio stay on the same station every time I press a preset?
Make sure you are not holding down the preset number when trying to recall a station. Tap and release quickly to recall a station. Pressing and holding the button for more than a few seconds will programme the current station to that preset number
