Thanks for your reply Rob.
As soon as I saw the information I got excited but the unit on CLK 1999 is different. It is becker CM2299. I am sure there is some set of information for CM2299 also. I just have to find it because dealer told me I have to buy another unit.

Dealer told me that the unit was Becker and I saw the model number on the unit.
Thanks for clarification.
So now I am looking for a way to change the 9 kHz interval back to 10 kHz for AM band for Alpine CM2299. The FM band interval is 100 kHz instead of 200 kHz for US.

Thanks
Bobby

Becker and Alpine are identical internally. Becker start with a BE and Alpine with a CM. that is the only difference.

The information at the link is for different model. My radio does not have some of the buttons mentioned there.
The guy at the dealer said he has not heard of such a problem before. And he suggested that I should buy a new unit or replace it w/ another used one for around $300.
But of course I rather find a fix for my unit.
