Nelson, you mean you cannot receive the signal or you cannot even enter the FM Mode?

Hi,

Yes, I can enter the FM mode but cannot receive the signal. I tried changing from normal band to Japan band and after that, backing to normal band again, but there is not signal, in any position.

The firmware version is: Digital Player, LX93001_A, 2006/12/08, ACT_V 9.0.4x.

Remember, please, this player was sold me as 8 GB but, after I formatted it, it turned out to be of hardly 228 MB.

Nelson , was the player able to receive radio previously?

I'm not able to see what version number your firmware is as it is v9.0.4x. Try connecting the player to the USB, and start MP3 Utilities Upgrade Tool, what is the full version number now? Do not update with any firmware, just use it to check your version number.

HI lattersurf,

Yes, the player was able to receive radio.

The firmware version is V9.0.48, according the Upgrade Tools...

Thank You

Nelson , was the earphone connected to the player whilst searching for radio stations?

What happens when you try to search for radio station? What error message did the player give?

With the radio on, press menu and try adjusting the search level or sensitivity level if it has them.
The earphone wire is the antenna. That's why lattesurf was asking if it was plugged in.

Yes,

The earphone is connected... When I try to search for radio stations, I only listen noise, a sharp noise as if it was trying to syntonize the radio stations. The player does not give any error message, only noise in the earphones.

syntonize
I had to look that one up

However I'm still am not sure what that sounds like.
Can you change the radio from one frequency to another?
Can you connect the output of the player to the audio input of your computer and record it for us and upload the file? Maybe if we hear exactly what it is we can help more.
