10 INTRODUCTION TO SHORTWAVE
Shortwave enables you to hear stations from around the
world. Now that you have a shortwave radio, no doubt you’ll
want to hear worldwide stations right away. If you’re new to
shortwave, please take some time to learn the basics outlined
below. To successfully listen to shortwave stations you must
know how to find them. They are found in the shortwave
‘bands’. On the Mini 300, the shortwave bands are num-
bered 1-7. The chart below and the one on the back of the
radio show the relationship of bands 1-7 to their official
names and the frequency ranges covered by them.
