What is DRM?
DRM means "Digital Radio Mondiale"
and is digitally broadcast radio via
long, medium and short wave. This
technique increases sound quality of
the transmitted programme conside-
rably compared to analogue method
that has been used so far.
The digital method allows parallel
broadcasting of several data chan-
nels, i.e. stereo programmes e.g.,
multilingual programmes or digital da-
ta services transmitted simultaneous-
ly to radio broadcastings (e.g. market
prices or similar) are possible via
DRM.

and programmes and frequencies

Device Characteristics
The DRM 2010 receiver enables you
to receive digital and analogue long,
medium and short wave radio pro-
grammes, as well as VHF radio (FM).
The receiver is supplied with energy
by the power line adapter enclosed.

Switching Device on and off
In order to switch on the device,
●plug adapter into power line socket,
●plug the jack of the adapter into the
socket DC IN on the left short side
of the device and
●press RADIO ON/ OFF on the front
side.
In order to switch off the device,
●press RADIO ON/ OFF again.
If receiver is switched on, the dis-
play is shining. Light goes out when
receiver is switched off.
If the device is switched off and
connected with the mains power
adapter, the unlit display shows
STAND BY.
When switching off, the device
saves the latest tuned frequency in
every receiving mode, with DRM
also the latest station adjustment
(preset). When the device is
switched off and then later on
again, the same programme, with
DRM the same station adjustment
appears as before switching off.
Adjusting Volume
Volume of speaker or headset
plugged in, can be set by thumb wheel
VOLUME on the right short side of the
device.
The LINE OUT on the right short
side of the device is not influenced
by that.
In case headset is plugged into the
corresponding socket on the left
short side of the device, the built-
in-speaker will be deactivated.
Choosing Receiving Mode
With the mode switch on the right
short side of the device (DRM/ AM/
FM) you can switch between FM
(VHM), AM (analogue long, medium
and short wave) and DRM (digital
long, medium and short wave).
Frequencies:
– AM/DRM: 150 kHz - 29.999 kHz
– FM: 87,50 - 108,00 MHz
The device cannot receive fre-
quencies outside of these areas.
Setting Frequencies
If the preset mode (see page 5) is
switched off, you can set frequencies
in three different ways:
1) Entering exact frequency via digit
key.
2) Using automatic station search.
3) Shifting frequency.

1) Entering exact frequency
●Enter the frequency needed via digit
key and press ENTER.
The last digit in each case can be
cleared by pressing CLEAR.
In AM/DRM area, frequencies can be
set exactly of up to 1 kHz (e.g.:
1-0-0-0-ENTER for 1000 kHz).
In FM area, frequencies can be set
exactly of up to 10 kHz (e.g.:
1-0-0-6-0-ENTER for 100.60 MHz),
however, it is rounded up to the next
50-kHz-level (in this case 100,50
MHz).
2) Using Automatic Station
Search
For automatic station search press
TUNE UP or DOWN for more than 2
seconds. As soon as a frequency with
a station signal has been reached, the
automatic station search will stop and
the programme will be played.
Automatic station search is only
possible with AM and FM.
3) Shifting Frequency
For shifting frequency press shortly, if
needed several times, TUNE UP or
TUNE DOWN. Each time you press
the button, frequency is changed by
50 kHz (FM) or 1 kHz (AM/DRM) up-
wards or downwards.
Station Memory (Presets)
The device is able to save up to 29
programmes including station adjust-
ment - so-called "presets“ - for every
receiving mode (DRM/AM/FM).
AM and FM: preset consists of only
the frequency.
DRM: preset also contains the chosen
service component and the setting of
the USB-output.
These presets are separately saved in
a numbered list for every single re-
ceiving mode (DRM/AM/FM).
Save Preset
●In order to save a preset, tune the
station needed and select the serv-
ice components in question by
pressing SC UP or SC DOWN.
●Press MEMO. PROG is now visible
on the display.
●Now enter preset number via digit
key and press ENTER.
For saving presets, it is not impor-
tant whether preset mode (see
page 5) is switched on or off.
If an already existing preset is
saved inadvertently or deliberately
under a new number, the previous
preset number will be deleted au-
tomatically.
If a preset is to be saved under an
already used preset number, a
query is raised on the display.

Selecting Presets
In order to choose an existing preset
from the corresponding preset list,
please go to preset mode (see right
column).
●Press PRESET MODE.
●Enter the preset number via digit
key (double digits shortly after each
other)
or
choose it from the existing preset
list by pressing TUNE UP or TUNE
DOWN.
Clearing Presets
Presets can be deleted at any time, in-
dependent whether preset mode (see
below) is switched on or off.
●To delete the currently chosen pre-
set, press CLEAR. Display is show-
ing CLEAR now.
●Press ENTER to confirm. Any other
key stops deleting.
If preset mode is activated, the device
changes to the next saved preset after
clearing. If there are no more presets
saved, preset mode is switched off au-
tomatically.
Preset-Mode
Saved station tunings and adjust-
ments can only be chosen if preset
mode is switched on.
●To activate preset mode on or off,
press PRESET MODE. If preset
mode is turned on, PROG is shown
on the display.
When activating preset mode, preset
entry with the lowest consecutive
number will be selected. When leav-
ing preset mode, device will remain
tuned to the current station.
Numerical keys and TUNE UP and
TUNE DOWN have a different func-
tion in the preset mode. They then re-
fer to the preset list of the tuned re-
ceiving mode:
–Numerical keys stand for saved
presets on the basis of the consec-
utive numbers in the list. Therefore,
it is not possible to enter frequen-
cies directly in the preset mode.
Further, manual tuning and auto-
matic station search are not possi-
ble.
–The keys TUNE UP and TUNE
DOWN effect that the device chang-
es from entry to entry in the preset
list.
The keys SC UP and SC DOWN (se-
lecting a service component) are also
active in the preset mode. If they are
used in the preset mode, preset mode
is switched off.
Independent whether preset mode is
turned on or off, the current preset
number is visible on the left lower side
of the display.

Service Components - Text Information

DRM-Service-Components
The DRM signal is a digital data
stream. It consists of 1-4 components,
the so-called service components.
They can be both, audio and data
components. Thus, with DRM it is not
only possible - such as with AM - to
transmit mono programmes (1 com-
ponent), but also to transmit stereo
programmes, multilingual pro-
grammes or e.g. parallely to a market
place broadcasting also share prices
for computers when using several
components. If and which service
components are broadcast are decid-
ed by the stations.
The number of service components,
which are contained in the currently
received programme, is shown on the
display. The service components in
question can be selected by pressing
SC UP and SC DOWN.
The flashing component number
shows the selected service compo-
nent.
If the selected service component is
not available anymore, the receiver
automatically switches to the audio-
service component with the lowest
number. As soon as the selected serv-
ice component is received again, the
receiver switches again to the select-
ed service component.
Only an audio-service component
can be selected.
Transmitted Text Information
Together with the digital radio pro-
gramme, different text informations
are also transmitted, such as pro-
gramme names, frequency, lan-
guage, as well as music interpreters,
signal quality, modulation or bit rate.
This information is shown on the dis-
play of the device. Some information
is shown automatically, some only on
demand.
●In order to get information about
programme names, language or
programme type (PTY), press
INFO. Information can be navigated
through by pressing several times.
●In order to get technical information
such as signal quality, modulation
or bit rate, press EXPERT INFO. In-
formation can be navigated through
by pressing several times.
Texts, which are longer that the dis-
play, run from right to left continuously.

Using the Antenna
The device has an installed ferrite an-
tenna for receiving long, medium and
short waves. To improve reception of
these frequencies, the receiver can be
connected to an appropriate outdoor
antenna. For this purpose, there are
two antenna sockets on the left short
side of the device. The upper socket
LOOP ANT is reserved for a loop an-
tenna, the lower one WIRE ANT for a
long-wire antenna.
For the reception of VHF (FM) a pop-
up antenna has been installed.
USB-output
In the case of DRM-reception, you can
choose which service component is to
be issued on the USB-output.
●Press USB; now the display is
showing the current setting.
●With SC UP or SC DOWN, you can
change through the received serv-
ice components.
●To choose the shown service com-
ponent, press USB again.
If you have chosen OFF, the USB-out-
put will be switched off.
Firmware Version
In order to see the firmware version in-
stalled,
●unplug the adapter if needed,
●press and hold SC UP and
●plug the adapter into the corre-
sponding socket of the receiver.
The display is now showing a charac-
ter string, e.g. A071V01Z. The part af-
ter the "V" (here: "01Z") indicates the
firmware version.
