drift on FM reception and keeping the
radio locked in on the FM station to which
it is tuned.
When tuning in FM stations, you may no-
tice that the station you are tuning can
be well-tuned on two or three nearby
points on the dial. Always tune carefully
at the loudest and clearest point.
Antennas
AM Antenna-A built-in ferrite rod antenna
eliminates the need for an outside an-
tenna for AM reception. Rotating the unit
slightly may improve reception of distant
AM stations.
