Using The Light Button; Bw (Bandwidth) Button; Fm St. (Fm Stereo) Button; Sw Meter Band Selection - Tecsun S-2000 Owner's Manual

USING THE LIGHT BUTTON

A quick press of the LIGHT button which gives about 3 seconds of illumination to the SIGNAL
strength indicator and the display. A long press lights these for as long as the radio is turned on,
so be careful if you're operating on batteries, because it will make them drain faster. If your AC
adapter is connected, it's fine to keep the light on while the radio plays. To turn off it by short
pressing the LIGHT button again.

BW (BANDWIDTH) BUTTON

Use the BANDWIDTH button to choose wide or narrow
selectivity, which is shown in the lower right corner of the
display as WIDE or NARROW. This may help reduce
interference on some frequencies. Using WIDE usually
results in better audio fidelity, while using narrow limits the
audio fidelity somewhat. You can use it in FM, MW, LW,
SW and SW SSB band.

FM ST. (FM STEREO) BUTTON

Press the FM ST. button when in the FM band to take the radio
in or out of stereo reception mode. When it's in stereo mode,
STEREO appears under the left side of the frequency in the
display, next to FM. As long as you are not using headphones
or earphones, it can be left in mono mode.

SW METER BAND SELECTION

There are three ways to select SW meter band:
1. A sequence of short press of SW button, a digit of meter band
with [mb] flashes on the top right corner of the display and the
lowest frequency of the meter band shows in the center of the
display.
2. Short press the SW button, notice that the meter band flashes on the top right corner of the
display and then use the / buttons to select your desired meter.
3. Short press the SW button, notice that the meter band flashes on the top right corner of the
display and then directly input the number of meter band, press again the SW button to confirm.
For example, when it is in SW band, key in number 19, it goes to 19 meter band note that 19 mb
is on the top right corner of the display and 15000 kHz shows in the center.
Note:
It goes to the lowest frequency of each meter band after your selection.

SSB (SINGLE SIDE BAND) TUNING

SSB enables listening to shortwave two way communications using the single sideband mode
such as amateur radio, Morse code, Weather-fax transmissions and other signals often referred
to as 'utility' signals.
To use the SSB control, turn on the TECSUN S-2000 and go into Short-wave. Press the SSB
button with a "B" sound and notice that USB appears in the display, to the right of SW.
Press the SSB button again with a "BB" sound and notice that LSB appears to the right of SW.
Press the SSB button with a long "B--" sound, it goes to AM mode and USB or LSB disappears.
USB is the abbreviation for Upper Sideband; LSB is the abbreviation for Lower Sideband. You
can now direct key in the SSB frequency you know to tune in
signals. Also notice that on the lower right front of the radio is
a control knob labeled SSB BFO. BFO stands for Beat
Frequency Oscillator. This control knob is used to fine tune
a sideband signal frequency.
