Shortwave stations from around the world will be heard on SW.

SETTING UP AM AND FM OUTSIDE OF NORTH AMERICA

You can skip this section if you are in North America and just purchased the E100. It is already set-up in the factory for use in North America. If you travel to other world regions, make the changes below as necessary.

Outside of North America, AM stations (MW in the E100’s display) are spaced in 9 KHz tuning steps. The FM frequency range may be different from that used in North America, e.g. like that used in Japan, 76-108MHz. To make these changes please see the instructions titled SYSTEM SET CODE TABLE, on pages 21-22.
