USING THE DX/LOCAL SWITCH (46)
The DX/LOCAL switch is located on the left side of the E5 and is
labeled DX/LO. Use DX as the default setting. This gives the E-5
maximum sensitivity to signals. If strong stations seem distorted,
then use the local setting (labeled LO). This switch does not function
in FM mode.
SELECTING FM, AM and SHORTWAVE (SW)
Turn on the E-5. To select AM press the AM BAND button (11), for
FM press the ‘FM BAND’ button (12) and for shortwave sequentially
press the ‘METERBAND’ button (10) until the shortwave band of your
choice is selected. The last used frequency is automatically displayed.
The most popular shortwave bands can also be accessed with the
F1-F7 buttons (F1=49m, F2=41m, F3=31m, F4=25m, F5=22m,
F6=19m and F7=16m).
See more specic information about the E5 and shortwave under the
heading SHORTWAVE WITH THE E5.
SHORTWAVE NOTE: If you’re completely new to shortwave or need
a ‘refresher’, see the special shortwave section toward the end of
this manual.
The frequency digits (33) appear in the lower center portion of the
display. AM and FM is for listening to local stations, while shortwave
brings in stations from around the world.
When listening to FM or shortwave, fully extend the telescopic
antenna (44). It need not be extended when listening to AM stations
(the AM antenna is located inside the E5).
LISTENING IN FM STEREO
FM stereo can be heard when using earphones/headphones (47) or
when routing the audio to a stereo amplication device from the
‘LINE OUT’ socket (43). To hear FM in stereo, press the ‘ST/MONO’
