RadioSelect the frequency bandYour radio provides reception of FM and
AM wavebands.
AM provides good long-range reception,
as its broadcast signals are not only propa-
gated at ground level as surface waves, but
also reflected from the ionosphere as
atmospheric waves.
FM furnishes substantially better acoustic
quality than AM broadcasts. However,
transmission range is limited, as FM relies
on line-of-sight broadcast signals.
To select waveband:
Select "FM..." or "AM..."
