Default 1977 Factory Stereo Question


Hello everyone
This stereo is in my 77 and its the factory CB/Cassette with digital display. I'm looking for a little help setting the time and getting it to switch over from AM to FM. I dont have a manual for the radio and I cant seem to find out much online. If anyone can provide instructions it would be greatly appreciated. I've tried what I thought were the most obvious and I dont know if I'm doing something wrong or if those functions are not working. Thanks in advance!

You gently pull out on the seek & scan buttons to change the time and I think you push the right hand **** in to change AM FM

Your radio is from the early 1980's. I found one on ebay that will help you identify the model number in search of instructions.

I agree. The 77 option was an 8 track am/ fm radio.

Default Great info

Thanks for the instructions - worked great and now the time and FM are set.

Kind of a bummer about the radio not being true factory 77 but it does look "period" and I'm ok with that. Thanks again for the info
