Help-New Sangean can't pick up any SW/LW ???

Have you verified that you can, or can't, get standard stations like
WWV (5, 10, 15Mhz)? How about the AM broadcast band in your area?

That's the first thing I would do -- particularly check that you can or
can't get WWV on 5 or 10Mhz at night.

It could be as simple as a mode problem -- you have the radio set to FM
or SSB but are trying to receive broadcast shortwave (which is AM).

What kind of antenna do you have on it?

Why does my police scanner pick up this FM broadcast station on WFM? It does not pick up any other stations.	[email protected]	Scanner	9	April 17th 05 01:54 AM
