Sony SW7600GR -- Imitial operation
Happy New Year to me and my new radio !
I have set the AM to 10 kHz differences, the time differential to UTC minus 5. My clock time is incorrect but that is no concern to me at this time. I just want to get going. I make sure that HOLD is pushed to the left and the key is not displayed. I press the AM/FM button. I key in 1030 (WBZ-AM at 1030 kHz is a local 50kW broadcaster), press EXE and get a display indicating that I am listening to 108.00, which is not a valid frequency selection in the US. Where am I going wrong ? David Ames |

You also need to check to see if the USB/AM Sync/AM three-way switch on the side is set to the mode you want, and the USB/SSB switch on the side is set to the sideband mode that you want, if that is what you plan to listen to. |
