Antennas

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.

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.
