It was earlier today brought to my attention that maybe my issue with fm drift is me not letting the set warm up enough. I turn it on fm, set it on a station, take a shower and I will need to retune it.From there it stays locked in period. if I turn it on am , take a shower and then switch to fm it stays locked in. Ok so once again maybe this is a learning issue......this is my first fm set. Opinions anyone?
