MISCELLANEOUS CONTROLS
In addition to standard tuning methods
described previously, usethe following
controls for special operations.
HEADPHONE USE
While not a control, you may consider using
HEADPHONES to obtain the best audio
clarity when listening to SW. Since many
SW stations broadcast only marginal
signals, using HEADPHONES will enable
you to distinguish between the signal and
the noise usually encountered at night. Be
sure that the HEADPHONES terminate in
a 1/8 inch plug, which is inserted into the
HEADPHONE jack located on the left side

This switch adjusts the receiver's sensitivity.

should be stereo capable so that your
listening enjoyment will be enhanced. When
