SHORTWAVE BROADCAST RECEPTION
Shortwave enables listening to broadcasts over vast distances including
other countries and continents. The following information will help you get
the best results. Select appropriate SW meterbands with the METERBAND
button.
• During the day, frequencies above 11000 KHz are usually best.
• At night, frequencies below 13000 KHz are usually best.
• Around sunset and sunrise, the entire shortwave range may be good.
• Getting very close to a window and holding the radio improves shortwave
reception.
