Hi guys.
I'm wondering if anyone has figured out how to get the am radio to reach 1700... the user manual seems to think the band should go that high but I can't seem to go past 1600 or cmose to that. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

I never tried this. Most of us have deleted the AM bands. I still have both AM and WB just in case of emergency. If the owner's manual says it will then it should. Just put it to manual mode and scroll to 1700's. Unless it is not capable which could be software related....or hardware even who knows. I'll look at mine later and let you know.

Thanks mate let me know how you go.. I tried the manual mode with no luck. I'll scroll through the manual and paste the It's where it mentions the frequency in scope.

Thanks again mate.

Haven't tried it yet, sorry. But just curious, are you in the U.S. and are you looking at a U.S. owner's manual? I will try it later. Honestly I don't really mess with the car much I get in start it, drive it and park it.

Thanks for confirming mate..
Sorry for the late reply.
I live in Australia. According to the band and manual I should get it here too... That's strange. Anyone know of any settings that changes the band settings? I changed this on other radios but can't seem to find it here..
Any help is greatly appreciated.
