AM reception
Ionosphere
AM signal reception is usually better than FM
reception. This is because AM radio waves are transmitted at low frequency. These long, lowfrequency radio waves can follow the curvatureof the earth rather than travelling straight outinto the atmosphere. In addition, they curvearound obstructions so that they can providebetter signal coverage. Because of this, clearAM broadcasts can be received at greater dis-tances than FM broadcasts. Iron bridges

FM broadcasts are transmitted at high frequen-
cy and do not bend to follow the earth's surface. Because of this, FM broadcasts generally be-gin to fade at short distances from the station.Also, FM signals are easily affected by build-ings, mountains, or other obstructions. Thesecan result in certain listening conditions whichmight lead you to believe a problem exists withyour radio. The following conditions are normaland do not indicate radio trouble:

FM reception
AM and FM radio signals are broadcast from
transmitter towers located around your city.They are intercepted by the radio antenna onyour car. This signal is then received by theradio and sent to your car speakers.
When a strong radio signal has reached your
vehicle, the precise engineering of your audiosystem ensures high quality reproduction. How-ever, in some cases the signal coming to yourvehicle is not strong and clear. This can be dueto factors such as the distance from the radiostation, closeness of other strong radio stationsor the presence of buildings, bridges or otherlarge obstructions in the area.

o Fading - As your car moves away from the
radio station, the signal will weaken andsound will begin to fade. When this occurs,we suggest that you select another strongerstation.
o Flutter/Static - Weak FM signals or large obstructions between the transmitter andyour radio can disturb the signal causingstatic or fluttering noises to occur. Reducingthe treble level may lessen this effect untilthe disturbance clears. o Station Swapping - As an FM signal weak-
ens, another more powerful signal near thesame frequency may begin to play. This isbecause your radio is designed to lock ontothe clearest signal. If this occurs, selectanother station with a stronger signal.
o Multi-Path Cancellation - Radio signals be- ing received from several directions cancause distortion or fluttering. This can becaused by a direct and a reflected signalfrom the same station, or by signals fromtwo stations with close frequencies. If thisoccurs, select another station until the con-dition has passed.
