S.O.S... going NUTS over reception problems
Make sure the RF gain is turned all the way to maximum.
Make sure the filter switch is set to its widest.
If ther's a local/dx switch, set it to dx.
Set the mode on AM.
Tune away...
Ya oughtta hear lots of stuff.

I'm not an avid shortwaver by any stretch, I had a good
time with a hand held a few years back and had it stolen in Mexico.
I recently have purchased a Sangean ATS 909, all I've read were good
reviews.
Can someone help diagnose my troubles he
I can hardly pick up ANYTHING. I can search through 2MHz to 30 MHz all
day
and night and pick up 3 or 4 transmissions.
I have just bought an external antenna to see if that'd help, it's an
EMF antenna,
a good one.
STILL NOTHING. What the hell? I live in Philadelphia in a 3rd floor
apartment, nothing
out of the ordinary in terms of interference... is it my equipment?
Should I contact Sangean?
Please inform.
Thanks,
Xan
