10 INTRODUCTION TO SHORTWAVE

Shortwave enables you to hear stations from around the

world. 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 short-

wave 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

12 GUIDELINES

MINI 300PE OPERATION MANUAL

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.

GUIDELINES continued

• 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 con-

crete 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 sit-

uation, get as close to a window as possible while

listening.

• These guidelines can be used worldwide and are not

dependent on location.

13 STATION

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 rec-

ommend the use of a comprehensive shortwave directory,

especially if you want to hear specific countries or to iden-

tify the station you’re listening to. Such a directory will

alphabetically list the countries broadcasting on short-

wave, 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.
