Grundig WORLD RECEIVER operation manual How To Go To A Specific Shortwave Frequency

O P E R A T I O N G U I D E

The traditional 31 meter band is considered a night band, covering the frequency range 9.5-9.9 MHz. In practice, broadcasts may be found starting at 9.2 MHz and extending all the way up to, but not including 10 MHz.

Step 1. Turn on the radio.

Step 2. Tune to the frequency at the beginning of the band, in this case, 9.5 MHz.

Step 3. Now tune manually, using quick, short over-and-over presses on the + tuning button. Each press advances the frequency by 5 KHz. Shortwave broadcast stations are spaced in these 5 KHz steps. Now, tune through the band, listening to any stations that you find interesting. You can move around in the band, going up or down frequency, by pressing the + or - tuning buttons.

Step 4. Alternatively, use the AUTO SCAN feature. The tuner will automati- cally stop when it encounters a station strong enough to stop the scanner. Weaker stations may be missed when using this method in shortwave. If you are looking for stations that may be weak, use the manual tuning method outlined in step 3 above.

HOW TO GO TO A SPECIFIC SHORTWAVE FREQUENCY

Press-and-hold the + or - button until the tuner gets into the general frequency range of where the specific desired frequency is located. Then, release-press- release the button to stop the scan. Then, use individual, quick, short presses of the + or - buttons to get to the exact frequency that you are selecting.
