Blaupunkt Bilbao tuning - UK Vintage Radio Repair and Restoration Discussion Forum

Hello, I have an old Blaupunkt Bilbao that I would like to use, but I am afraid that I have no idea how to tune it properly. I haven't found any manual and only few things about this model in internet. It seems to be working, it turns on, it does make a noise, but it does not detect any signal. Any clue how I can find a manual, or simple directions to tune it AM or FM? thanks

Have you connected an FM antenna? A metre of wire may be enough to get a signal in Reykjavik.

I don't know if there are any AM stations still broadcasting in Iceland.
