  • Notes

  • Your Broadcast Receiver acts as an IF-amplifier: First adjust the Radio set to a wavelength between 450 and 500 meters (where no local station is received!), with all dials tuned in and all controls set, just as though a distant station was being tuned in. Now the Receiver is ready to use with adapter.

    Connect antenna and ground to the ANT and GND terminals on the Short Wave Adapter. Tune using the selector control and use the auxiliary control to adjust regeneration.
