I believe the speaker or audio amplifier circuit has failed in my 396XT.
The audio was sounding scratchy/distorted at volumes over 8 for about 5 minutes or so, then the speaker cut out. Plugging into the headphone jack gives me good, clean audio.
I was able to get the speaker to work twice by running the volume up and down from 0 to 15 a few times. It would sound distorted, then cut out again at any volume above 7 or so.
I did try leaving the batteries out overnight to see if that helped, it worked for a few seconds then cut out again.
Has anyone seen this before?
