EVENING/NIGHT LISTENING This is the best time to listen, because the broadcasters are deliberately transmitting to North America. These bands may be

12、 extremely good around sunset and sunrise too. Best night bands are shown in BOLD print in the table below. IF YOUR BUILDING BLOCKS SIGNALS: If you notice that the signal strength of a stations substantially improves when you get very close to a window or when you go outside, then it is certain that

13、 your building blocks shortwave signals.This blockage is due to the construction materials of your building or to having one or more stories or levels above you.The solutions to this are to do your listening very close to a window, to go outside or to set up an outdoor shortwave antenna. For ideas o

14、n how to set up an outdoor shortwave antenna, use your favorite Internet search site and type in shortwave antennas. If you dont have Internet access, contact us, etn Corporation, using the contact methods noted at the beginning of this manual. UNDERSTANDING SHORTWAVE BANDS continued DAY BANDS 13m 1

16、. Similar to 19m. Best around sunrise and sunset. May be good mid-day in Eastern North America. Similar to 25m. DAY BANDS AND NIGHT BANDS THE DIFFERENCE IS IMPORTANT Because shortwave signals depend on such factors as the sun, the ionosphere and interaction with the earth itself, signals cannot be h

17、eard on all bands throughout the day. Some bands are best during the daylight hours, and some are best at night. In general, the bands with frequencies below 13 MHz (13000 KHz) are better at night and the bands with frequencies above 13 MHz (13000 KHz) are best during the day. Listed below are the c

18、haracter- istics of the major shortwave bands. Follow these guidelines for best listening results. How to get into a specific band will vary from one radio to another. Consult your owners manual for instruction on how to access the bands on your radio or call etn Corporation if its not clear to you.

19、 SUNSET AND SUNRISE OFTEN THE VERY BEST TIME TO LISTEN. We are often asked whether there is a truly best time for listening to shortwave, when signals are strongest and clearest. Often, this is a window of hours right around sunset and sunrise. Sometimes its a two-hour window, other times three or f

20、our hours. Experiment to determine when its best in your area. DAYTIME LISTENING Shortwave listening is generally at its poorest dur- ing the daylight hours of about 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. The major reason for this is that the broadcasters are not transmitting to North America at this time, assuming that

21、 we are all either at work or at school and are not able to listen during the day. If you want to try daytime listening, use the guide- lines below.Typically, daytime shortwave tends to be better in Eastern North America than in Western North America.The best daytime bands are shown in BOLD print in

22、 the table below. 14 WARRANTY REGISTRATION E10 OPERATION MANUAL 2928 13 TROUBLESHOOTING RESET PROCEDURE The RESET button is on the bottom of the E10. When performing a reset, have good batteries in the radio or power it with an AC adaptor and turn it off. Perform a reset if the solutions outlined be

23、low dont resolve the issue.To perform a reset, press the reset button with a paper clip or similar object. WILL NOT TURN ON 1. Assure that the LOCK feature is not engaged. 2. Assure that the radio has power (batteries installed or AC adaptor plugged in. 3. Assure that batteries are inserted with cor

24、rect polarity 4. Assure that the batteries are not depleted 5. If using an AC adaptor, assure that it is plugged into the household outlet (mains socket) and into the radios DC socket.Take care not to plug it into the earphone socket.Also, assure that the AC adaptor is of the correct DC voltage outp

25、ut and polarity and that its plug-tip is of the correct inner and outer diameter. SHUTS OFF ABRUPTLY WHILE PLAYING DURING BATTERY USE This is caused by depleted batteries. Replace them. SHUTS OFF ABRUPTLY WHILE BEING MOVED DURING AC ADAPTOR USE This is usually caused by a broken wire or loose con- n

26、ection in the AC adaptors cord or if the AC adap- tors plug-tip is of the wrong diameter. OPERATES ERRATICALLY Perform a RESET, as described in the section titled RESET PROCEDURE. STATIONS ARE RECEIVED TOO WEAK Assure that the ANTENNA GAIN switch is set to the DX position. Assure that the telescopic

27、 antenna is pulled up all the way for FM and Shortwave reception. When listening to AM stations, swivel the radio. The AM internal ferrite bar antenna is highly directional. On shortwave, adjust the ANTENNA TRIMMER. THERE IS NO SOUND FROM THE SPEAKER Assure that earphones/headphones are not plugged

28、in and that the volume control is turned up. A STATION CAUSES SEVERE AUDIO DISTORTION, BUT SEEMS TO BE VERY STRONG IN SIGNAL STRENGTH This is probably a strong, local station, very close to your location. Because of its close proximity to you, its signal is too strong.To reduce signal strengths, pla

29、ce the ANTENNA GAIN switch into the NORMAL or LOCAL position. THE BATTERY COMPARTMENT HAS A STICKY LIQUID OR DRIED WHITE POWDER IN IT This is the result of battery acid leakage.To avoid battery acid leakage, only use high quality alkaline or rechargeable nickel-metal-hydride batteries.
