I've got an original tuner that has worked fine for almost 2 years. Now as the unit warms up it will drift off station and changing stations has no effect. The unit will only output static or multiple stations. I checked the cable per the FAQ. This is not the problem. I thought that I had read about a possible problem with an op amp on the tuner board. Does anyone have any info on this?

Thanks!
Jeff

First I've heard of it.

My original tuner exhibits an odd (but different) symptom while warming up. There is a high pitched whine, on certain AM radio frequencies only, that cycles up and down in pitch slowly. When the tuner is fully warmed up, this whine goes away. It only seems to happen during warmup.
