USING THE CLOCK RADIO
Your receiver has two clocks. We rec-
ommend you set the primary clock for
local time and the secondary clock for
UTC (Coordinated Universal Time —
formerly called Greenwich Mean
Time), because most shortwave sta-
tions announce broadcast times in
UTC.
The time zone map on the back of the
receiver shows the difference in hours
between UTC and each time zone. To
determine your local time, tune your
receiver to a time standard frequency
(see “Time Standard Frequencies” on
Page 24) and get the current UTC
time. Then add or subtract the speci-
fied number of hours from UTC time.
During Daylight Saving Time, subtract
1 more hour.
SETTING THE CLOCKS
Follow these steps to set each clock.
Both clocks display the time in the 24-
