My realistic pro 2025 scans but boes not receive any signal,not even the weather. I have a radio shack pro-49 that receives and both have the same fregs.
I ha ve realistic 2032 which is doing the same thing and was wondering because everything else including all the functions work fine including hearing white noise and being able to control it with the squelch could this be the end for it or is there stuff yet to do
The Realistic Pro-2025 relies on a quartz lock-loop signal synthesizer to receive signals, the synthesizer might of gone bad, chalk it up to old age. The Realistic PRO (Progressive Receiving Occilator) models are not around anymore, they went obsolete years ago. It's nice that you have one, they are worth some money on eBay. However I'm afraid it will cost you more money to fix the synthesizer than the radio is actually worth. It would be best to use your Radio Shack PRO-49. Realistic is a division of Radio Shack founded by Tandy Corp, basically you've been using a Radio Shack scanner the whole time. So if you have any complaints, take it up with them, you won't find Realistic anymore.
Hope this helps!

I have a PRO-30 with the same problem. The radio will scan, but does not receive, including NOAA weather. While I'm not good at electronics, I think I'll take it apart and start by looking my antenna wire. After this, I'm not sure what to look for.
Anyone have some troubleshooting ideas???
