How to fix Sony STR-DN610 Receiver when radio stations cannot be tuned in?
- T
  Terry ClarkSep 12, 2025
  If radio stations cannot be tuned in on your Sony Receiver, ensure the antennas (aerials) are securely connected. Adjust the antennas (aerials) and connect an external antenna (aerial) if needed. If tuning in with automatic tuning, the signal strength might be too weak; try using direct tuning. When tuning in AM stations with direct tuning, make sure you set the tuning interval correctly. If tuning by scanning preset stations, either no stations have been preset or the preset stations have been cleared; preset the stations.

Verify that the connected component is compatible with the Control for HDMI function and check its Control for HDMI settings.

Why no image or sound on TV when Sony STR-DN610 is in standby mode?

  Raymond ArmstrongSep 16, 2025

If you connect components not compatible with “BRAVIA” Sync to the receiver, make sure “PASS.THRU” is set to “ON” in the HDMI menu.

  If no sound is output from the receiver and TV speaker while using the System Audio Control function on your Sony Receiver, make sure the TV is compatible with the System Audio Control function. If the TV lacks this function, set the “AUDIO.OUT” settings in the HDMI menu to – “TV+AMP” to listen to sound from both the TV speaker and receiver, or “AMP” to listen to sound only from the receiver. When connecting the receiver to a video component like a projector, sound may not output from the receiver; in this case, select “AMP”. If you can't hear the sound of a component connected to the receiver, change the receiver's input to HDMI when watching a program on a component connected via HDMI, change the TV channel when watching a TV broadcast, or select the component or input you want to watch ...
