Hello all. I have a 40-190 and having some signal problems. It was working decent when I bought it awhile back but now the signal goes in and out. I now have to switch between broadcast and shortwave to bring the signal back in. Sometimes if I take the band switch it'll come back. Also there is some static on a lot of stations. Could resistors be the problem? Any help would be appreciated.
