RADIO FREQUENCIES
AM and FM frequencies are established by the Federal Communications
Commission (FCC) and the Canadian Radio and Telecommunications
Commission (CRTC). Those frequencies are:
AM - 530, 540–1700, 1710 kHz
FM- 87.7, 87.9–107.7, 107.9 MHz
RADIO RECEPTION FACTORS
There are three factors that can affect radio reception:
•
Distance/strength: The further you travel from an FM station, the
weaker the signal and the weaker the reception.
•
Terrain: Hills, mountains, tall buildings, power lines, electric fences,
traffic lights and thunderstorms can interfere with your reception.
•
Station overload: When you pass a broadcast tower, a stronger signal
may overtake a weaker one and play while the weak station frequency
is displayed.
CASSETTE/PLAYER CARE
Do:
•
Use only cassettes that are 90 minutes long or less.
•
Tighten very loose tapes by inserting a finger or pencil into the hole
and turning the hub.
•
Remove loose labels before inserting tapes.
•
Allow tapes which have been subjected to extreme heat, humidity or
cold to reach a moderate temperature before playing.
•
Clean the cassette player head with a cassette cleaning cartridge after
10–12 hours of play to maintain good sound/operation.
