Selecting 0 minutes simply deacti- vates the sleep timer.

USING YOUR SHORTWAVE LISTENING

Thoroughly read the SHORTWAVE LISTENING GUIDE included with your radio. It completely explains everything needed to successfully enjoy shortwave listening. Once you have read about shortwave "bands", use the examples below to try out your radio's shortwave abilities. Refer to pages 6 through 9 of the SHORT-

WAVE LISTENING GUIDE.

Note: your radio shows shortwave frequencies in megahertz (MHz).

HOW TO TUNE AROUND IN A SHORTWAVE BAND

Let's use a specific example to learn how to "tune around" in a shortwave band and find stations. It's really no different from tuning around in the AM and FM bands for finding local stations. We will use the shortwave 31 meter band, an evening band, in the example below, but you can substitute any other band based on it's suitability for the time of day that you are listening, e.g., 19 meters during daylight hours. Refer to pages 6 through 9 of the SHORTWAVE LISTENING GUIDE.
