In the USA, that's the case. Regulations on radio frequency usage vary around the world, though. >Blyskacz a écrit: >> hello [quoted text clipped - 4 lines] >> almost all stations are betwen this values :( >> - do You know how can I solve this problem ? Yes; unfortunantly, you have a North American spec radio; you'll need to remove it and replace it with a European spec unit. Gary  SignatureGary Heston gheston@hiwaay.net The Intel ASCI Red supercomputer placed first in the 11/97 list of the top 500 supercomputers in the world, at 1.338 TeraFLOPs max. As of 6/05, it wouldn't make the list. >>> hello >>> I have a SC-811 in my volvo and I can listen only few radiostations, [quoted text clipped - 6 lines] >Yes; unfortunantly, you have a North American spec radio; you'll need to >remove it and replace it with a European spec unit. Don't replace it - I bet there's a way to reprogram it...I don't believe there are different radios for differnt markets any more... CL Per manual for an american c70; for radio sc-813/816/900(1) It will probaly work for yours. Let us know. ------- Switch off the radio; hold down preset button 5; switch on the radio; repeat this till relevant market appears (US),(AUS),(EU) Good Luck SignatureSteve E. > >>> hello > >>> I have a SC-811 in my volvo and I can listen only few radiostations, [quoted text clipped - 11 lines] > > CL Hello IT WORK on sc-811 too ! :-) Thanks :-) Blyskacz > hello > I have a SC-811 in my volvo and I can listen only few radiostations, [quoted text clipped - 6 lines] > thx > Blyskacz Move to the USA! Tell them you are part of the coalition of the willing at immigration, it should work well! Sorry no useful answer, however. > hello > I have a SC-811 in my volvo and I can listen only few radiostations, [quoted text clipped - 6 lines] > thx > Blyskacz This works on a SC-816, not sure about the 811: Radio off, ignition on or accessory position. Press and hold preset 5, then turn the radio on. Your display will read "USA". Release the 5 button, then press it once more. Your display should now read "AUS". Turn the radio off, then back on. Your tuner should now stop at 0.1 MHz steps. SignatureMike F. Thornhill (near Toronto), Ont. Replace tt with t (twice!) and remove parentheses to email me directly. (But I check the newsgroup more often than this email address.) |
