Re: Tecsun 380 - Longwave stopped working
aaron@...
I think I've now broken both my MW/LW and FM buttons (they press but don't do anything). Now the only way I can get into FM is by resetting the batteries (as the default is FM). Shortwave still works. --- In ultralightdx@..., <ceo@...> wrote: The LW range can be switched on and off.
Switch off the radio and hold down the MW/LW button. EIther "LW ON" or "LW OFF" will appear. If it's "LW OFF" let the button go and then hold it down again until it changes. :^) You can also adjust the FM coverage the same way (if you're an international jetsetter) with the [FM SET] button.
