RADIO Notes on radio reception
Car radio receivers are subject to phenomena which do not affect domestic radio sets. Both MW/LW and FM reception are
subject to various forms of interference. This is no reflection on the quality of the equipment, but is due to the nature of the
signals and the way in which they are transmitted.
On MW/LW, interference may be noticed when passing under high voltage power lines or bridges, or in tunnels.
On FM, interference may be the result of increasing distance from the transmitter, deflection of the signals by obstacles
(mountains, hills, buildings etc), or of being in an area which is not covered by a transmitter. Selecting radio mode

waveband, then in "DX"sensitivity (selection of the weakest and most distant transmitters).
To make a direct search in "DX"sensitivity, press button Kor Ltwice.
