Found Helix Conion C-100F Knock Off

Hello, I'm kind of a noob here but I've been collecting boxes for a while. I recently found what looks like a Conion C-100F, but it is branded Helix.This was just sitting on the curb behind a stereo and I grabbed it. Is it just rebranded or something else entirely? Also the radio is extremely picky, it will only tune in if i am holding about 2" below the end cap.Any help here would be awesome.

hi, J yeah the conion has been under many brands....
a few i could remember are claritone, nippon, helix, and a few others...maybe there something loose inside making the radio act that way?
