Expensive looking fm tuner not keeping stations etc in memory. Not fully dismantled as quite a workup to get to the stage of getting to the C11 supercap with only 1/4V on it. Anyone aware of anything else that needs changing as a lot of normal electros on the Vdd line through different parts of the kit. I will change the fractional farad (if I can find such a squat one) but how to test these to confirm it is failed? charge to 5V and time discharge through an R but what sort of value , high enough not to phase it , and low enough for reasonable time to 2.5V? ESR I imagine is irrelevant. Schematic is on e-service
