Hi Russ,
This is Gary the reviewer, and I have probably seen more SRF-59's than
anybody outside of Tokyo. Out of twelve units I've tested, only one had this
problem.... Kevin's ex-turkey unit (now fully aligned and sensitive). Of
course, alignment does not cure this problem, and the unit still has the
scratchy sound when tuned. There is no cure I know of, except to replace the
tuning capacitor, which of course would require a part from Sony that may cost
more than the radio itself. My suggestion is that you take the radio back to
the place of purchase and get a quick refund, rather than waiting for a repair
job.
73, Gary
