NAD T760 FM stereo not working

It began already a few years ago. I could only listen to the radio, if I switched from stereo to mono. Otherwise no or only poor reception. In the meantime no FM reception no more - neitehr in stereo, nor in mono. Any idea ??? (I already checked antenna cable)

Hello
There are three fuses with your NAD surround receiver.

Reference No Part Number Description

M751*AH 5120-0200-0 Fuse 5A 125V Time Lag 5x20 MM MITI/UL/CSA

M754*AH 5120-0052-0 Fuse 1.6A 250V Time Lag 5x20 MM UL/CSA
M752*C 5120-0024-0 Fuse 3.15A 250V Time Lag 5x20 MM SEMKO/VDE

Check them first and inform me which one has blown out. I'll give you detais after that. OK.

    All the three fuses are on [PSU] board.

    ...I suppose...no... none of them is blown. Voltages are up and stable (due to my informations). It seems to me if the the stereo decoder chip TA-XXXX is faulty or its ceramic filters...the rapair shop told me so...he asserted, that FM reception is working, but only in mono, not in stereo. If you switch to stereo, the reception/output fails...

    Hello
    The service technician may not be wrong. He may have checked the decoder board. Normally decoder chips will be of SMD [Surface Mount Type]. If so it is really a skilled jobe to replace them. If you can get the decoder as card basis, replace it with a new card. It will be best. OK.

    ...uhhhh...verrrrry fast answer..thanx. I told this issue to my friend. He told me to check the voltage after the switched power supply concerning ripples and harmonic distortions. I have an oscilloscope of my own, so I can check this. He assumes, that a electrolytic capacitor fails, because the problem arose slowly. Nevertheless thank you for your really fast reply....or do you have any other ideas ???

    Bye, Styrian

    ...uhhh..very fast reply...thank you. I told this issue to my colleague. He told me to check the DC voltage concerning ripples because of its switched power supply design. He mentioned, that it might be that harmonic distortions might influence the AGC. I own an oscilloscope, so I can check this issue. Do you have any other ideas/ advices ???

    ...he assumed bad electrolytic capacitors because this issue arose within the last years and not suddenly. I'll hope so. Otherwise it will be very difficult to obtain the radio board, because the NAD T760 is an exotic device and the support here in the region is very bad...

I have an older (10 ) years Sansui am/fm receiver model rz-5500av. It performs well, but after a power surge, the fm radio will not play in stereo. The fm stereo indicator flashes on and off. I was told...

Part of the circuit is a stereo multiplexer decoder, that decodes the fm stereo signal, I guess that is what you mean when you talk about capacitor linked to the fm band.

I do not have the sbchematics for this circuit, if you are good at electonics just grab the tester and check the whole circuit. On a radio is not difficult to find a blown capacitor.

Test also the stereo/mono switch.

I have just bought a pure radio Elan E3 when I switch on it says no stations found

FM radio settings
Note: You can only see the FM radio settings when you have selected ‘FM’ as the radio source.
FM stereo option
You can choose between stereo or mono reception when listening to FM radio. Mono may improve
clarity where stereo signals are weak.
To change between Stereo or Mono reception:
1. Press the Menu button.
2. Turn and press the Select dial to choose ‘Audio Setting’.
3. Select between ‘Stereo Allowed’ or ‘Forced Mono’.
FM scan
You can choose whether your Elan E3 automatically stops at the next available FM station or the next
available FM station with a strong signal when scanning for an FM station. To change the FM scan
setting:
1. Press the Menu button.
2. Turn and press the Select dial to choose ‘Scan Setting’.
3. Select between ‘Strong Stations Only’ or ‘All Stations’.

DAB settings
Note: You can only see the DAB settings when you have selected ‘DAB’ as the radio source.
Full scan
You can use the ‘Full Scan’ (autotune) function to automatically scan for new digital radio stations and
remove inactive ones.
To carry out an autotune:
1. Press the Menu button.
2. Turn and press the Select dial to choose ‘Full Scan’.The number of stations found will be
displayed during the autotune.
When the autotune has finished, your Elan E3 will tune to the last station that you were listening to. If the
last station you were listening to is no longer available, your Elan E3 will tune into the first station in the
alphabetical list.
Manual tuning
To manually check the signal strength of a known channel:
1. Press the Menu button.
2. Turn and press the Select dial to choose ‘Manual tune’.
3. Turn and press the Select dial to choose the channels.

I get static and distortion in Stereo mode.

if you are reffering to a radio fm receiver, the issue is the signal strength is too low.so the multiplex transmission cannot be correctly unscrambled.mono reduces the cross channel interference.
use a high gain 12 db or above external vhf antenna to solve this problem

With the Marantz SR 440/640 receiver, there is a Mono/Stereo push button. What position should the button be in to listen to a stereo broadcast? [email protected]

I can't find the manual or a good picture of the front panel but I'll chime in anyway.

Are you sure the button applies to FM? It may be for overall stereo vs mono listening.

If it IS for FM choose Stereo. Mono if the station is so weak that it won't tune in stereo. Usually a receiver will have an Auto function that will do it automatically.

How do I preset the tuner for radio stations. I've never had a problem doing this with any other stereo. But what I think should work isn't!

Not very specific. Do you have the manual?

The following is from a VSX-03TXH manual. It ain't pretty but it may help.

I'm posting it in multiple parts due to space contraints.

Chapter 6:

Using the tuner

Listening to the radio

The following steps show you how to tune in to FM and

AM radio broadcasts using the automatic (search) and

manual (step) tuning functions. If you already know the

frequency of the station you want, see Tuning directly to a

station below. Once you are tuned to a station you can

memorize the frequency for recall later-see Saving

station presets below for more on how to do this.

1 Press the FM/AM button to select the tuner.

2 Use the FM/AM button to change the band (FM or

AM), if necessary.

Each press switches the band between FM and AM.

3 Tune to a station.

There are three ways to do this:

Automatic tuning

To search for stations in the currently selected band,

press and hold TUNE ?©/?? for about a second. The

receiver will start searching for the next station,

stopping when it has found one. Repeat to search for

other stations.

Manual tuning

To change the frequency one step at a time, press

TUNE ?©/??.

High speed tuning

Press and hold TUNE ?©/?? for high speed tuning.

Release the button at the frequency you want.

Improving FM stereo sound

If the TUNED or STEREO indicators don't light when

tuning to an FM station because the signal is weak, press

the MPX button to switch the receiver into mono

reception mode. This should improve the sound quality

and allow you to enjoy the broadcast.

Using Neural THX

This feature uses Neural Surround™, THX® technology to

achieve optimal surround sound from FM radio.

• While listening to FM radio, press AUTO/DIRECT for
Neural THX listening.

I have a new Onkyo TX-SR508 receiver. When listening to FM radio the audio cuts out repeatedly for anything from a few seconds to a minute. Power fluctuation is very unlikely to be the problem. Signal...

Does the display show "tuned" or "FM Stereo"? This would normally indicate a good reception. The tuner has a signal level threshold and if the signal gets to week, the receiver mutes to prevent noise in the speakers. Swithing to mono make reception less intolerant. Does the problem also occur, when you switch to mono?

NAD 7130 FM stereo signal (on off again and again)

The contacts in the A B speaker selector switch had degraded on my NAD 7130 receiver. Distortion and signal loss would come and go. Contact cleaner and wriggling the swx knob became useless. Then, years ago I jumped the swx with small lengths of bare wire and tinned the whole thing with solder. Never had a problem since and it probably improved the receiver because it eliminated a component in the output stage that could (and did) introduce distortion.
