Now that you have a shortwave radio, no doubt you’ll want to hear worldwide stations right away. If you’re new to shortwave, please take some time to learn the basics outlined below. To successfully listen to shortwave stations you must know how to find them. They are found in the shortwave ‘bands’. On the Mini 300, the shortwave bands are numbered 1-7. The chart below and the one on the back of the radio show the relationship of bands 1-7 to their official names and the frequency ranges covered by them. 11 SHORTWAVE BANDS FREQUENCY RANGE IN MHz OFFICIAL SHORT-WAVE BAND NAME MINI 300 SWITCH SETTING SW1 49 meters 5.950-6.20 SW2 41 meters 7.10-7.30 SW3 31 meters 9.50-9.95 SW4 25 meters 11.600-12.100 SW5 22 meters 13.600-13.800 SW6 19 meters 15.10-15.80 SW7 16 meters 17.500-17.90 10 MINI 300PE OWNER’S MANUAL 12 GUIDELINES HERE ARE SOME GENERAL GUIDELINES • In general, the bands with frequencies below 13 MHz are better at night and the bands with frequencies above 13 MHz are best during the day. This guideline, while approximate, is a useful general rule of thumb. • During the day, listen in SW5-7. These may start getting good just before sunrise and may stay good all day, until just after sunset. • At night, listen in SW1-4. These may start getting good just before sunset and may stay good all night, until just after sunrise. • Around sunrise and sunset, both the day and night bands might be good, sometimes exceptionally good. • Winter shortwave is generally somewhat better than summer shortwave. • Holding the radio while listening to shortwave will improve signal strengths. • Getting close to a window may substantially improve your reception because the construction materials of some buildings do not let signals in very well. Signals penetrate wood frame buildings easiest, while concrete and brick buildings usually block signals. If you are in a building with one or more stories above you, signals can also be impaired in strength. In such a situation, get as close to a window as possible while listening. 11 MINI 300PE OWNER’S MANUAL 12 GUIDELINES continued • These guidelines can be used worldwide and are not dependent on location. 13 STATIONS HOW TO IDENTIFY WHAT YOU’RE LISTENING TO AND HOW TO FIND STATIONS THAT YOU WANT TO HEAR For this, you’ll need to use a shortwave directory. We recommend the use of a comprehensive shortwave directory, especially if you want to hear specific countries or to identify the station you’re listening to. Such a directory will alphabetically list the countries broadcasting on shortwave, showing their language, target area, broadcast time and frequency that is used. The easiest to use shortwave directory is PASSPORT TO WORLD BAND RADIO, available in major bookstores and directly from the publisher.
