13:45 Uhr Seite 20 OPERATION ____________________________________________________________ Stereo/mono reception (with earphones only) However, if the signal from the FM stereo station is weak, you can improve the sound quality by switching to mono reception. 1 Press »STEREO MONO« (on the left of the device) to switch to mono. – The stereo LED goes out. 2 Press »STEREO MONO« (on the left of the device) to switch to stereo. – The stereo LED lights up when a stereo channel is received. Short wave reception Your radio can receive signals in a number of frequency bands. It does not take long to get used to tuning to FM and MW stations, since these stations are always at the same places on the tuning scale because they broadcast at fixed wavelengths and frequencies. Unfortunately, this is not always the case with short wave stations. Due to atmospheric conditions, short wave stations must frequently broadcast on different wavelengths. Most short wave bands are available all over the world and can be used by international broadcasters. At present these are the only wavelengths which provide listeners with direct reception over long distances. For this reason, short wave frequencies are not only used by radio stations, but also by other users such as amateur radio enthusiasts, shipping, aircraft and radio navigation systems.

13:45 Uhr Seite 21 OPERATION ____________________________________________________________ ENGLISH If you want to listen to a particular SW station, you need to know the precise frequency and wavelength. Many short wave stations will send you broadcasting schedules which give you the information you need. You can also download the information from the Internet.
