Built-In AFC

The Built In Automatic Frequency Control
(AFC) works only on FM. It helps reducing
drift on FM reception and keeping the
radio locked in on the FM station to which
it is tuned.
When tuning in FM stations, you may
notice that the station you are tuning can
be well-tuned on two or three nearby
points on the dial. Always tune carefully
at the loudest and clearest point.

Antennas

MW antenna - A built-in ferrite rod
antenna eliminates the need for an out-
side antenna for MW reception. Rotating
the unit slightly may improve the recep-
tion of distant MW stations.

FM antenna - The power cord acts as your
FM antenna. It picks up moderate to
strong stations and eliminates the need for
an external antenna in most strong signal
areas. Be sure the power cord is stretched
to its full length. Do not coil or bunch the
cord together. Changing position of the
power cord may improve reception.

You may try to move the power cord in
order to improve the reception.
