[. . . ] YACHT BOY 208 YB 208 page 3 ANTENNA SW BAND SELECTOR SW/LW/MW/FM YB 208 VOL TUNING DC 3 V ON/OFF TUNING 2 x IEC LR6/UM-3/AA 3 YB 208 page 8 INTRODUCTION Short Wave (SW) Your world receiver can receive a number of wavebands. Tuning to the required FM, MW or LW station will soon become a matter of routine, as the stations are always to be found at the same place on the dial and are thus tied to a fixed wavelength and frequency. [. . . ] Hand over the old batteries to your dealer or public collecting points when buying new ones. OPERATION Radio operation · Set the ON/OFF switch to ON. FM = VHF waveband MW = Medium Wave LW = Long Wave SW = Short Wave Use the SW BAND SELECTOR to switch between the 9 SW ranges. · Stations can be tuned to with the rotary TUNING control using the waveband dial. · Adjust the volume with the E VOL control. Aerials ­ The telescopic aerial is intended for receiving FM (VHF) and SW (shortwave) stations. · For FM reception the aerial should be fully extended, then swivelled and rotated until best results are achieved. ­ For receiving MW or LW stations there is a ferrite rod aerial inside the set. · The best position for receiving a station should be found by rotating the set around its vertical axis. AC Mains adapter (not included) You can connect the set to the mains using a mains adapter. · Only use a mains adapter which supplies 3 V DC with the negative pole at the centre pin of the plug (+<-). · Connect the mains adapter to the DC 3 V +<- socket of the set and to the wall socket. ­ Any batteries inserted in the battery compartment are automatically disconnected. Ear- or Headphone · With 3. 5 mm jack plug can be connected to socket PHONES p. Switching off · The set is switched off when the ON/OFF switch is set to position OFF. 9 YB 208 page 10 GENERAL INFORMATION Technical specifications Power supply: Batteries: . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
