Hello, I have a Hitachi MX-W01 Stereo Receiver but unfortunately the user=B4s guide has disappeared. I can use the memory function and store tuning information but after a few days only this information is lost. What might cause this memory loss after a few days? Is there a battery hidden somewhere that has to be replaced? Thanks in advance, Sven Ingvar J=F6nsson, Link=F6ping Sweden snipped-for-privacy@swipnet.se

I'm not familiar with your specific model, but modern receivers use a small-size, large-value backup capacitor rather than a battery. This could be your only problem. They come in different mounting styles and different values. If you can find yours, the value will be printed on the capacitor, so you won't need service literature. And they're not very expensive.
