If “TRY” “AGAIN” appears in the display

When you enter an invalid frequency (i.e., a figure that is not within the frequency range of the band you chose), you will hear a beep and “TRY” “AGAIN” appears in the display.

Check the frequency and repeat from step 3.

Notes

•Complete each operation from step 3 to 5 within 10 seconds. If the display returns to the previously tuned frequency, repeat from step 3.

•The unit will not beep if the beep is set to BEEP OFF (see “Turning off the beep”, page 43).

For SW reception, you can enjoy even better reception by using the supplied external antenna (see “Using the supplied external antenna”, page 32).

Tips

•Plug in the supplied stereo headphones to enjoy FM stereo reception. Set ST • MONO to ST or MONO to select stereo or monaural reception. Select MONO when reception is noisy or unclear.

•When listening to news programs, etc., set TONE to NEWS. Speaking voices will be heard clearer. When listening to music programs, set TONE to MUSIC.

•Reception of frequencies around 3.0MHz and 3.64 MHz may be difficult due to internal spurious signals generated by the built-in oscillators.
