Understanding Radio Reception
AM
The range for most
AM
stations is greater than for FM,
especially at night. The longer range, however, can
cause stations to interfere with each other. AM can pick
up noise from things like storms and power lines. Try
reducing the treble to reduce this noise
if
you ever get
it.
FM
Stereo
FM stereo will give you the best sound, but
FM
signals
will reach only about
10
to
40
miles (16 to
65
km). Tall
buildings or hills can interfere with
FM
signals, causing
the sound to come and
go.
Tips About
Your
Audio System
Hearing damage from loud noise is almost undetectable
until it
is
too
late. Your hearing can adapt
to
higher
volumes
of
sound. Sound that seems normal can be loud
and harmful
to
your hearing.
Take
precautions by
adjusting the volume control on your radio to a safe
sound level before your hearing adapts
to
it.
To help avoid hearing loss or damage:
0
Adjust
the
volume control to the lowest setting.
Increase volume slowly until you hear comfortably
and clearly.
NOTICE:
Before
you add any sound equipment
to
your
vehicle
--
like
a
tape player,
CB
radio, mobile
telephone or two-way radio
--
be sure you can
add what you want.
If
you can,
it’s
very
important to do
it
properly. Added sound
equipment may interfere with the operation of
your vehicle’s engine, Delco Electronics radio or
other systems, and even damage them. Your
vehicle’s systems may interfere with the
operation of sound equipment that has been
added improperly.
So,
before adding sound equipment, check with
your dealer and be sure to check Federal rules
covering mobile radio and telephone units.
