Help needed: US Car Radio (Blaupunkt) doesn't work in Europe on all frequencies
Hi Everybody,
I bought a car radio from US and imported to Europe (model: Ford Blaupunkt MP3 http://www.radiosandmore.com/prod_de...3S4T-18C869-AE). Now the problem is the 0.2 MHz step of the FM tuner (don't care much about the AM which I know is also different) will not allow me to tune into even frequencies here (and most of the stations are so). I have basic electronics knowledge, I've soldered few boards, I've worked once with a microcontroler. What I want to know is what should I do to make this HU (otherwise great unit) to tune in European radio stations (FM would suffice). If anyone could help me, it would be greatly appreciated. I have seen it done on a Russian website so I know it is possible just don't know how (http://www.erta.ru/diapazon.shtml). P.S. Please don't come up with "buy another unit that works in Europe". It doesn't help. Thanks, Vlad. |

Most of my Pioneers have a setup mode where you can select 200 kHz or
50 kHz tuning steps. This unit looks modern enough to have something similar. I suggest trying to find some service documentation if the procedure is not listed in the standard documentation. Thomas |
