Troubleshooting Guide
The CC Skywave will not turn on and none of the buttons work:
The Lock button:
that is located on the front of the radio may be activated. When activated, a key icon
will show on the display screen. Push lock button for 2 seconds to resume normal operation of the radio.
See “Lock Button” on Page 12.
My radio shuts off after just a few seconds:
Low batteries can cause this situation. Replace them with a new set of batteries.
Stations won’t hold in memory:
The memory button settings are being overwritten. When recalling a station from memory, if you hold the
memory button down too long it will program the current station over your previously stored station. To recall
a station that has been stored in memory, always press and release the button quickly. To program a new
station into memory, tune to the desired station and then press and hold the memory button for two seconds
until you hear a beep.
Poor reception on AM band:
Rotate the radio until the reception is best. Many buildings that use brick, metal, or stucco can absorb or
reflect the Am signal. Computers and other electronic equipment, including fluorescent lights, can cause noise
that interferes with your AM reception. Move the radio to a different place to see if that helps. Additional noise
may affect a weak signal. There are several bandwidth filters which can help to reduce interference. Select
which one sounds best by pressing the “BANDWIDTH” button. For better reception, use an external AM
antenna like our Terk Indoor AM antenna available at
