(200-0228) Shortwave Stations Faxback Doc. # 45691
Tuning Preprogrammed Shortwave Stations
Your receiver is preprogrammed with 212 of the most popular worldwide
and U.S. shortwave stations. You can quickly tune these popular stations.
Notes: You cannot change the preset shortwave station stored in your
receiver's memory.
You can store shortwave frequencies into the receiver's empty
memory locations. See "Storing SW Frequencies in Memory" below
for more information.
International commercial broadcast programs (often in English)
usually contain news, commentaries, music, and special features
reflecting the culture of the broadcasting country. Reception
for this range is best between 6:00 PM and midnight (your time).
Follow these steps to tune preprogrammed shortwave stations.
1. Find the country and frequency for the shortwave station you want to
tune in the "DX-398 Shortwave Pages Chart" below. Then write down the
page number and memory location number shown on the chart for that
station.
2. Press SW, then press PAGE.
3. While PAGE is flashing, repeatedly press TUNING DOWN ARROW or
TUNING UP ARROW or turn MANUAL TUNING until the page numbers you
wrote down in Step 1 appears next to PAGE. The name of the broad-
caster's country also appears next to PAGE.
Then, when you reach the desired page number, press ENTER symbol.
4. Press a number key to enter the memory location number you wrote in
Step 1. The receiver tunes the station.
Note: If you press a number key for a memory location number where
there is no station stored, MEMOFREE flashes for a few seconds.
Then the receiver tunes the station you previously tuned.
