CB- Radio Reception
The CB (Citizen’s Band) frequencyrange isused for localcommunication among
hobbyradio users. Extend the telescopic antenna to full length to assure best
reception. Turn the band selector (2) into CB position and tune (1) over the CB band.
The channel numbers correspond roughlyto international CB channel numbers.
Like on all typical two-way-radio bands,you mayuse the squelch knob which can
suppress the noise, audible on channels during the time periodswhen nobodyis
transmitting. Adjustthe squelch knob carefullyon afree channel to exactlythat
position, where the noise just begins to disappear.
TV1- FM- Reception (4 m commercial radio band and 3 m FM broadcast band)
Initiallyextend the telescopic antenna to full length and adjust the angle, ifnecessary.
Select TV1 - FM mode with control knob (3) and find astation bytuning the
frequencytuning knob (1). Take care that the selector (2) is in FM position. Use the
squelch knob for receiving non continuous transmitting radio services, like PMR or
utilityor securityradio stations. Adjustthe squelch knob carefullyto that position
where the noise just disappears, when the station is just not transmitting.
AIR-PB-WB- Reception (2m Band, AirBand, Amateur Radio, Commercial (PMR)
Radio)
Extend the telescopic antenna initiallyto full length. Use FM mode selector switch (3)
to select AIR-PB position and adjust the tuning knob (1) to the desired station. Make
sure that selector (2) is in position FM. When receiving astation, it maybe necessary
to readjustthe antenna to optimum length and antenna angle. Sometimes ashorter
length gives better receiving quality! Use squelch, ifnecessary.
TV2- Reception (higher VHF band segment, TV audio of „Band III“)
For this band you will need the telescopic antenna, but the optimum length will be
shorter (depends on wavelengths). 50-60 cmshould be reasonable. In Europe, you
can receive on TV 2 band the audio channels ofcable TV or TV stations operating on
TV channels 5-11.
