GENERAL Time zones Short Wave (SW) The earth rotates around its axis in 24 hours and around the sun In one year. These movements are responsible for the time differences and the seasons on earth. Due to the direction of rotation of the earth it is always earlier in the day to the west of where you are and later in the day to the east of where you are. The earth is divided into 24 time zones with a difference of one hour between adjacent zones.
RADIO RECEPTION AM STEP selector (MW) The minimum 'frequency distance' (span division) between adjacent radio stations (measured in kHz) is standardized all over the world. However, North and South America use another standard than the rest of the world. This means that the radio should use a tuning step according to the standard concerned in order to obtain accurate radio tuning. The AM STEP switch (in the battery compartment) allows accurate tuning for both standards.
RADIO RECEPTION Tuning to a station There are three possibilities for tuning in to a station: - Automatically - the stations are sought automatically. - Manually - This is easy if the frequency of the station is already known (e.g. from your radio and television guide). - Directly - The easiest way to obtain a station if its frequency is already known. Automatic tuning • Keep [H] or [M] (TUNING UP or DOWN) pressed down until thefrequency on the display changes continuously.
