megahertz (MHz), e.g. 100.8 MHz, ignoring the decimal point. Use the numeric keypad to enter 
the frequency directly.  

Note:

No need to enter decimal point for FM and Air Band when input the frequency numbers.  For 

  example, FM 89.0 MHz, Just ENTER 8 9 0 or FM 104.0 MHz, ENTER 1 0 4 0.  (or press 8 9 
  ENTER, and 1 0 4 ENTER).
- For SW band in between 1711~2999kHz, simply input the frequency number then press ENTER 
  to confirm. For example, SW 2650kHz, just input 2650 ENTER . If SW frequency in between 
  3000~29999kHz, just input the numbers directly (no need to press the ENTER button to confirm).
- For any mis-typed number, simply press DELETE button to cancel it.
-         will appear on the display, when entering any outbound frequency.

On the right side of the radio are the 50 Ohm BNC sockets for FM and Shortwave. 50 or 75 Ohm 
coaxial cable can be used to feed the properly designed antenna.  
There is also a black and red socket, labeled 500 Ohms, designed to work with a high impedance 
Shortwave Antenna, 500 Ohms, such as a long wire antenna. Plug a long piece of wire, 10 to 35 
meters or 30 to 100 feet, into the red socket and position it above ground, running in as much a 
straight line as possible, not touching any other metal objects.  If you do this indoors, position the 
wire as close to windows as possible.  Plug a 10 to 20 meter or 30 to 60 feet wire into the black 
socket and let it run on the floor or ground. Or attach the black socket to a cold water pipe with as 
short a piece of wire as possible. 
When using external sockets, select EXT. ANT. with the selector switch on the right side of the radio.
