Understanding Radio Reception
FM
Stereo
FM
stereo will give you the best sound, but
FM
signals
will reach only about 10 to
40
miles
(16
to
65
km).
Tall
buildings or hills can interfere with FM signals, causing
the
sound to come and go.
AM
The range for most AM stations is greater than for FM,
especially
at
night. The longer range, however, can
cause stations to interfere with each other.
AM
can pick
up noise from things like storms and power lines. Try
reducing the treble to reduce this noise
if
you ever get it.
Tips
About Your Audio System
Hearing damage from loud noise is almost undetectable
until
it
is too late. Your hearing can adapt to higher
volumes
of
sound. Sound that seems normal can be loud
and harmful to your hearing. Take precautions by
adjusting
the
volume control
on
your radio to a safe
sound level before your hearing adapts to
it.
