Itried and it worked.  My radio hadn't worked in over a month.  Good to have it back.  I also found a pdf manual 
     http://www.jvc.ca/en/consumer/downloadmanual.asp?f=49581ien.pdf
 and while it was downloading, I tried your information.  Also had to set the clock.  Haven't done it yet, but manual says to hold the sel (select) button for 2 seconds and you can select to set clock hours and minutes.
Thanks, and good listening
