RADIO Notes on radio reception
Your radio is 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).
