Just happened this afternoon. Anyone have any ideas on what may have failed to cause me to lose the signal on stations over 1200 AM? All the other stations before 1200 (550 - 1190) come in great, but it's puzzling to me why I can't get the local station anymore at 1470 AM, which is always the strongest signal. Any help from the experts here would be most appreciated.
