Hi,

I'm having trouble with very bad reception on FM radio, but only on low frequencys, < 90 MHz. Is this an antenna issue, or do you think something is broken within the beomaster?

Hello all vintage products fans!

I have the same trouble with my Beomaster 800. The radios below 95Mhz have an important hiss for the most powerful ones and can't be tuned at all for the faintest.
Above all is perfect, no hiss or very few in stereo.
I re-made some soldered joints on the tuner board which seemed to me bad and dry, and then, this trouble has disappeared a little but the reception is still better above 95Mhz.
All ideas will be greatly apreciated!

There can be several reasons but first things are :

Beomaster 800 : Check the power supply voltage setting and replace caps.

Beomaster 3000-2 : Check (or replace) the black square rectifier in the corner of the tuner board
and the filter cap right next to it.
