wen doing "auto scan and save of all channels" the radio is scanning and saving empty ( dummy ) channels and it goes to upto 30 or more somtimes. in my area only 5 or six channels are available and all are clearly available if i tune into it manually. but in my receiver i cant save manually tuned channels so i desperately need a solution for this is it because of interference ??? how can i solve this ??
 
It might be interference.
It might be a cheap radio circuit that is overloaded by strong local stations.
 
I was hoping to find it on Google, but didn't. It does seem strange that you can't set a manually tuned station. John

Presumably it's so cheap and nasty that it only has auto-tuning, and is so poor quality it can't even do that properly?.
