Hi, I only got this a couple of days ago and was so pleased with the look and sound of it, I posted how happy I was with the purchase. Today however I connected the tuner to an antenna (a known good one in a good location that worked fine with my old tuner) and it's deaf! I can only get a couple of FM stations and zero AM ones (on the ferrite rod). I suspect the front end is blown or there is some switching issue to the antenna connections? If I disconnect the antenna the signal drops out BUT if I move it close to the connectors the signal comes back (weak as before) as though some kind of capacitive link is being made. I'm not scared to get the soldering iron out (if the seller is willing to reduce the price) I've done plenty of component level repairs in the past.
So, what is the issue and how do I go about fixing it?

p.s. I'm listening to the amp now, it sounds wonderful, I'd really like to keep it.
