SET-UP FOR NORTH AMERICAN USE
North America’s AM stations are exactly 10 kilohertz apart.
At the factory, the radio is set up for the 9 kilohertz spacing of
stations in Europe. To change this to the 10 kilohertz spacing:
1. With the radio OFF, press and release the AM button
once.
2. Immediately press and release the STEP button.
“10 KHz” now appears in the right side of the display
and will disappear in a few seconds.
This change will be permanently in the radio’s memory as
long as batteries are not taken out for a period of ten
minutes or more.
When travelling outside of the Americas, use the same proce-
dure as above to set the spacing back to 9 kilohertz.
1. On the right side of the radio, set the SSB switch to the
OFF position. This feature is described on page 22.
NOTE: the FINE TUNING control, on the right side
of the radio, is only activated and needed when the
YB400PE is in the SSB mode. You do not need to use
this control when listening to regular AM, FM and
shortwave broadcasts.
2. On the left side of the radio, set the DX/LOCAL
switch to the DX position. DX allows for maximum
sensitivity, the preferred position.
