User manual SONY ICF-SW07

[. . . ] To prevent fire or shock hazard, do not expose the unit to rain or moisture. World clock feature Find out the time for any place in the world by selecting a city name. Worldwide coverage with FM stereo/SW/MW/LW reception Simple and precise tuning with the quartz controlled PLL (Phase Locked Loop) synthesizer system. The radio automatically chooses the frequencies used in your time zone from the ROM data and scans for them. [. . . ] When scanning at night when reception is intense, or when scanning under prevalent interference, the unit may stop scanning to null broadcasts frequently. When there is no reception If any of the frequencies stored in MY-Memory was not received, scanning stops with a beep when the radio returns to the frequency where it started scanning. Lowest stored MY-Memory number Scan start MY-Memory number Highest stored MY-Memory number The MY-Memory number flashes in the display while ERASE is held down. A beep sounds after 3 seconds and the station assigned to the MYMemory number is erased. Note When a MY-Memory station is erased, any changes to its default label is erased as well. To change the station stored in MY-Memory You cannot overwrite a frequency stored in MY-Memory with a new one. Erase the particular MY-Memory number first, then store a new frequency. note MY-Memory stores stations to the lowest available MY-Memory number. Note, thus, that if a MY-Memory number lower than the one you erased is available, the new frequency will be stored to that number. You can receive SSB (Single Side Band) and CW (Continuous Wave) transmissions with the built-in BFO circuit. Each time SSB is pressed, the display changes as follows: (Normal mode) USB LSB/CW 1 kHz steps in the USB or the LSB/CW mode, but the frequency digit below the decimal point is ignored when memorized. If a preset AM frequency is recalled during the USB or the LSB/CW mode, the mode setting remains active and the frequency is received in the respective mode. Each time SYNC is pressed, the display changes as follows: (Normal mode) SYNC U SYNC L Synchronous detection may be cancelled when the batteries become weak. Even when you have chosen either of the synchronous detection modes and SYNC U or SYNC L is lit in the display, synchronous detection may not take effect if reception is weak. In this case, "LOCK" will not light up. If a preset AM frequency is recalled when either synchronous detection mode is in effect, the mode setting remains active and the frequency is received in the respective mode. Use the supplied Short Wave Active Antenna AN-LP2 for better short wave reception. The antenna gives you stable indoor reception with the built-in amplifier. This antenna can be used only to receive the short wave meter bands from the 120 meter band to the 11 meter band as seen in "Frequency range of the bands/meter bands", page 19. Insert two R6 (size AA) batteries with correct polarity. Battery life of the active antenna Using Sony R6 (size AA) dry batteries (JEITA*): approx. When to replace the batteries When the batteries become weak, the POWER lamp of the antenna controller dims. [. . . ] The standby time setting was erased because you took more than 3 minutes to replace the batteries. No frequencies are stored in the STANDBY MEMORY (the buzzer sounds at the preset time). 40 mm (15/8 inches) diameter, 8 ohms Maximum output 200 mW (at 10 % harmonic distortion) Power requirements DC 3 V, two R6 (size AA) batteries External power source DC IN 3V jack accepts: supplied AC power adaptor* Dimensions Approx.
