SELECTING BANDS AND TUNING IN STATIONS
Turn the radio on. Select the band with the BAND Selection Knob
and by looking at the red light above the radio's display. The red light
appears to the left of the band or the weather channel that you've
selected.
When listening to FM and Shortwave, pull up the telescopic antenna
all the way. When tuning AM and LW stations the telescopic antenna
is not needed and can be lowered. Tune in stations by revolving the
Frequency Tuning Knob.
LISTENING TO SHORTWAVE
For best results, listen to SW1 from about an hour before sunset, all
night until about an hour after sunrise. Most stations in SW1 will be
in the 49 meter band (5.8-6.2 MHz), the 41 meter band (7.1-7.7 MHz)
and the 31 meter band (9.4-10 MHz).
Listen to SW2 mostly during the day, except the 25 meter band
(11.6-12.2 MHz), which can be used day and night. The daytime
bands in SW2 are 25 meters (11.6-12.2 MHz), 19 meters (15.1-15.7
MHz), 16 meters (17.55-18 MHz) and 13 meters (21.45-21.6 MHz).
