Trouble-Shooting
C. I hear a 'burbling' noise on some stations.
A. If the signal strength is too low, a breakup in reception can occur. This sound is the result. Make sure that Mondo's wire ("Pig-Tail") antenna has been unraveled and is straight. If the problem persists, try moving Mondo to another location or check that you have DAB coverage in your locality.
Q. I get a ? before some stations in my station list, and don't seem to be able to select them.
A. '?' before a station name means that it is either inactive or unavailable. This can be because they are not currently broadcasting, you are outside their broadcast area or you have simply lost reception. To remove inactive or unavailable stations, simply perform a Full Scan.
I get a 'clock not set' message.
A. Mondo needs to be able to receive a DAB signal in order to automatically set its clock, since this information is actually taken from the DAB signal. Try turning Mondo on and pressing the SCAN button on your remote control. If Mondo is able to find a DAB station, it will be able to set the time and date.
