  21. Before you do this, trying removing the clock batteries for a minute,
  22. and reinstalling them (perhaps a new set).  My 803A began exhibiting
  23. frequency instability, which was cured by this simple expedient.
  24.  
  25. If this doesn't work, Sangean has an 800 number, where they
  26. can probably supply you with a schematic.
