Emerson Radio RP6250 - Manual (Page 11)

10
Note:
Since the National Weather Radio transmitters operate at much lower
power than commercial radio stations, the volume on the weather band
will be lower than for AM/FM or TV bands. This is normal and not an
indication of any trouble with your unit. Adjust the VOLUME when listening
to the Weather Band if necessary.
If you do not hear the weather reports when you press the WEATHER button, very
slowly rotate the WEATHER BAND FINE TUNING control on the back cabinet of
the radio until you are receiving the frequency of the National Weather Radio
transmitter that is broadcasting in your area. You only need to do this one time,
unless you move to a different area. In that case you might have to adjust the
WEATHER BAND FINE TUNING control again.
Antennas
AM
This unit has a built-in ferrite rod antenna, which eliminates the need for an external
antenna, and provides adequate reception in most areas. If reception is weak,
turn the unit to improve reception.
FM, TV, WEATHER BAND
The telescopic antenna on the top of the
unit is for these bands only. If reception is
weak, adjust the length and direction of the
antenna.
