system unwind the dipole antenna on the rear panel of the
device completely.
Should FM radio reception be inadequate, change the >
position of the wire antenna. Secure the dipole antenna, if
necessary, with sticky tape.

MW stations. When the MW reception is insufficient turn
the device in a more favourable direction.
