Meter bands refer to frequency bands which short wave broadcasts are divided into wavelengths.

Normally, international broadcast frequencies are assigned. With this unit, there are 14 meter bands. Note The actual frequency range of short wave broadcasts and the range of the meter bands for this unit may differ.

Page: 24 Listening to the radio 24GB Searching available stations from presets — Memory scan tuning You can scan stations stored on a page.

Convenient way using memory scan tuning When performing memory scan tuning, scanning will stop at the available stations. By storing frequencies of a short wave SW broadcast station that differ depending on the time and period on a page, the available frequency can be received by scanning that page. The unit will scan all stations preset to the selected page in ascending order and stop when there is reception.

Press SCAN again to select the next station. After the highest preset number has been scanned, the unit will return to the smallest preset number and scan again. When there are no stations available If no stations are received after scanning, the unit will return to the preset number where the scan was started and two short beeps will be heard.

Note Many international broadcasts for short wave have limited broadcast hours. Due to this, the unit may not be able to tune in to the station outside the broadcast hours, or the unit may tune in to another station such as the local station of your area, etc.
