Listening to AM/FM Radio Stations
Selecting the AM/FM radio
Selecting AM/FM radio (Figure 33) allows you to listen to your local AM/FM broadcast sta-
tions using the tuner in the Wave/PC
™
unit. To find a radio station, click the
AM
or
FM
button
and a list of your local radio stations is displayed in the station finder. These stations were
downloaded during installation according to the ZIP code you entered. In the far left-hand
column of the station finder window, an indicator is displayed next to the strong stations.
Note:
FM radio reception is improved by installing the supplied FM dipole antenna. See
“Connecting the external FM antenna” on page 12. If you are not using the FM dipole, the
power cord serves as an antenna. Straighten the cord as much as possible for best
reception.
