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.
