Radio Reception; Am Step Selector (Mw); Aerials - Grundig G2000A Owner's Manual

5 RADIO RECEPTION

5.1 AM STEP selector (MW)

The minimum 'frequency distance' (span division) between adjacent
radio stations (measured in kHz) is standardized all over the world.
However, North and South America use another standard than the
rest of the world.
This means that the radio should use a tuning step according to the
standard concerned in order to obtain accurate radio tuning.
The AM STEP switch (in the battery compartment) allows accurate
tuning for both standards.
Position 10kHz for the Americas - MW tuning step 10kHz;
Position 9 kHz for the rest of the world - MW tuning step 9 kHz;

5.2 Aerials

For FM reception extends the telescopic aerial fully. To
•
improve the reception you can incline and rotate the aerial. If
the FM signal received is too strong (in the direct vicinity of
the transmitter) you can retract the aerial.
For the medium wave (MW), the set has a built-in aerial, so
•
the telescopic aerial is not needed. You can direct the aerial
by turning the set itself.
For short wave reception (SW) extend the telescopic aerial
•
and position it vertically.
