quencies, 108-136 MHz, as well as standard FM and AM broad-
casts. With type 1 and 2 models, PSB, 144-174MHz,
can also be
received.
@ The quartz controlled
PLL (Phase
Locked
Loop) synthesizer
system uses a microcomputer to make pinpoint tuning easy.
The tuned frequency is displayed digitally.
@ Choice of direct, scan, manual or memory tuning.
@ Up to 40 (type 1 and 2 models) or 30 (type 3 and 4 models) sta-
tions can be memorized so that they can be tuned in at the press of
a key.
@ Air band and PSB can be received more easily with the memory
scanning, program function, priority function and delay function.
@ Squelch
control
to suppress
noise while tuning and during
intervals between communications.
@ The key protect function operates at the press of a key to lock
the keys on the front face so they cannot be operated by accident.
@ Helical antenna for high sensitivity and selectivity has BNC con-
nector for attachment to the receiver.
e@ Four
different
power
sources:
batteries,
house
current,
rechargeable battery pack or car battery.
PRECAUTIONS
@ Operate the receiver only on 6V dc with four IEC designation R6
batteries (size AA).
For ac operation, use the ac power adaptor recommended for this
set.
For car battery operation, use the car battery cord recommended
for this set.
@ Use the set within a temperature range of 0°C to 40°C (32°F to
104°F). If it is used in temperatures outside this range, numbers
may appear' on the display which have nothing to do with the fre-
quency being received. If it is used in temperatures lower than this
range, the numbers
displayed may changed very slowly. These
irregularities will disappear and there will be no damage to the set
when the set is used in its recommended temperature range.
@ Do not leave the set near heat sources, such as radiators or air-
ducts, or in a place subject to direct sunlight, excessive dust,
moisture, rain, mechanical vibration, or shock.
@ Should any solid object or liquid fall into the set, remove the bat-
teries, and have the set checked
by qualified personnel before
operating it any further.
@ When
the case
becomes
soiled, clean
it with a soft cloth
dampened
with a mild detergent
solution.
Never use abrasive
cleansers or chemical solvents, as they may mar the case.
@ In vehicles or in buildings, radio reception may be difficult or
noisy. Try listening near a window.
@ When there is lightning and you are using an external antenna,
immediately disconnect the ac power adaptor (if connected) from
the wall outlet. Never touch the antenna wire when there is light-
ning storm.
@ Reception of 109.875 MHz, 166.17 MHz, 167.08 MHz and
455 kHz
may be difficult due to internal spurious signals generated by the
built-in oscillators.
lf you have any question or problem concerning your set that is not
covered in this manual, please consult your nearest Sony dealer.
