RADIO FREQUENCIES

AM and FM frequencies are established by the Federal Communications
Commission (FCC) and the Canadian Radio and Telecommunications
Commission (CRTC). Those frequencies are:

AM - 530, 540–1600, 1610 kHz

FM- 87.7, 87.9–107.7, 107.9 MHz

RADIO RECEPTION FACTORS

There are three factors that can effect radio reception:

Distance/strength: The further you travel from an FM station, the
weaker the signal and the weaker the reception.

Terrain: Hills, mountains, tall buildings, power lines, electric fences,
traffic lights and thunderstorms can interfere with your reception.

Station overload: When you pass a broadcast tower, a stronger signal
may overtake a weaker one and play while the weak station frequency
is displayed.

CASSETTE/PLAYER CARE

Do:

Use only cassettes which are 90 minutes long or less.

Tighten very loose tapes by inserting a finger or pencil into the hole
and turning the hub.

Remove loose labels before inserting tapes.

Allow tapes which have been subjected to extreme heat, humidity or
cold to reach a moderate temperature before playing.

Clean the cassette player head with a cassette cleaning cartridge after
10–12 hours of play to maintain good sound/operation.

Don’t:

Expose tapes to direct sunlight, extreme humidity, heat or cold.

Leave tapes in the cassette player for a long time when not being
played.

CD/CD PLAYER CARE

Do:

Handle discs by their edges only. Never touch the playing surface.

Inspect discs before playing. Clean only with an approved CD cleaner
and wipe from the center out.
