Hmm, I wish I could say, but as there's a short somewhere in the electrical system in my car that causes a slow drain on my battery, I actually have to disconnect and reconnect it each time I go anywhere (this is a recent thing) so everything gets reset to factory presets,.

The radio always starts at 530 AM, then when switched to FM it's at 92.5, the first preset is 88.1, 2nd 92.5, I think the 3rd is 97.5, I haven't really used the others as I just tune manually.

On my DX440, I have the first preset set to the Sackviille Relay of Radio Japan at 6.120, I don't really bother much with the other presets since it's almost as easy to just manually enter what freq. I want to go to.

You actually admit to having WMRD as a pre-set???????????? My next question is WHY?? I guess if you like listening to Romper Room radio that's the frequency for you. They have a guy on in the morning, who supposedly has been on the air for
30 years????? Yet ask around Middlesex county if anyone has even heard of Bob Muscatell??????????
Do yourself a favor and change your preset to something better!
