quality of the equipment but is due to
the nature of the signals and the way
in which they are transmitted.
On MW/LW, interference may be no-
ticed when passing under high voltage power lines or bridges, or in tunnels.
On FM, interference may be the re-
sult of increasing distance from the
t r a n s m i t t e r , d e fl e c t i o n o f t h e s i g n a l

Regional mode (REG)
Some stations, organised in a network,
broadcast regional programmes in the
various regions which they serve. The
regional mode enables you to continue
listening to the same programme. Search by type of programme
(PTY)
This enables you to listen to sta-
tions which broadcast a type of pro-
gramme which has a theme (NEWS, SPORTS, TALK, POP, CLASSICS).
