Eton G5 Weather Radio User Manual


 
The light illuminates the display and buttons. There are three light
modes.
Normal Mode: Pressing any button activates the light. The light
automatically turns off after 15 seconds.
Always-On Mode: When powered by its AC adapter, the light
remains always-on when the G5 is turned on.
Manual Light-On/Off Mode: If the light is off, pressing the LIGHT
button (7) activates the light for 15 seconds. Pressing it again within
15 seconds turns the light off.
The external antenna socket is used to connect the G5 to advanced
performance antennas using a 50 or 75-Ohm coaxial cable feed-
line. There are many such antennas on the market today. Typing in
‘shortwave antennas’ on your favorite Internet search site will provide
further information. Contact Etón Corporation if you have questions
about such antennas.
When listening to FM stations this switch selects stereo or monaural.
Select stereo when using earphones. When not using earphones, it’s
OK to leave it on stereo. In either case, if the FM signal is poor, select-
ing mono may improve it.
