Default Can somebody please explain?

Make sure the RF gain control is turned all the way UP. Return for
assistance if still unable to receive anything. Let Rat Shack embarass
themselves.
There has to be a reason they are clearing these out. Returns, wharehouse
wannabees etc.

I bought an Eton 1 from Circuit city as a Christmas gift and it was
delivered yesterday. I took it out of the box to check it out. I live in

the
Las Vegas area which has about 15 AM stations and 25 FM stations. The Eton

1
could barely bring in about one-half of those stations. Just incredibly

poor
reception. The whip antenna made very little difference when it was
extended. I don't have an outside antenna; it was just plug and play - and
it didn't pick-up that much to play. I mean here's a worldband radio that
can't get stations 30 miles or less away. Am I missing something? Thanks

in
advance.
