Your RadioShack DX-399 Short-wave Receiver brings the voices of the world 
to you.  You can hear news broadcasts and other programs from sources 
around the world, such as Radio Cairo, Israel Radio, British Broadcasting 
Company, and Radio Moscow.  You can get emergency information firsthand by 
listening to amateur radio broadcasts.  In the long-wave (LW) band, you 
sometimes hear hurricane reports, ship-to-shore calls, and other marine 
and aeronautical services.  You can tune to local broadcasts in the FM and 
medium-wave (MW) bands.  (In the United States, we commonly call the MW 
band the AM band).

Your receiver's other features include:

     Continuous SW. Coverage - allows you to scan the entire SW band.
