Your Realistic DX-380 Receiver brings
the voices of the world to you. You can
take this lightweight, compact receiver
almost anywhere you go and choose
from a wide variety of broadcasts on
the FM, longwave (LW), shortwave
(SW), and medium wave (MW) bands.
(In the United States, we commonly call
the MW band the AM band.)
In the FM and MW bands, you can
tune to local broadcasts. The 13 inter
national SW bands bring you the
news and other programs from such
sources as the British Broadcasting
Company, Radio Cairo, and Radio
Moscow. In the LW band, you can
hear hurricane reports, ship-to-shore
calls, and other marine and aeronauti
cal services.
Three Power Options — let you
power the receiver with internal bat
teries, standard household AC power
(using an optional AC adapter), or DC
vehicle battery power (using an op
tional DC adapter).
Dual Time — lets you view the
receiver’s primary clock, which shows
your local time, or a secondary clock,
which you can set to show UTC
(universal time coordinate; also called
Greenwich mean time) or the local
time of a city in another time zone.
Memory Tuning — lets you store up
to 45 frequencies in memory so that
you can easily select your favorite
stations.
Direct-Access Tuning — lets you
directly tune to the desired frequency
by entering the frequency on the keypad.
Alarm/Standby Feature — lets you
set the buzzer to sound or the
receiver to turn on at a specified time.
Sleep Timer — lets you set the
receiver to turn off after 60 minutes so
that you can fall asleep as you listen
to the receiver.
Headphone Jack — lets you connect
optional stereo headphones so that
you can listen privately and hear FM
broadcasts in stereo.
Folding Stand — lets you securely
position the receiver at an angle.
Memo Pad — lets you record helpful
information such as the memory loca
tion numbers of your favorite station.
TIMEZONE MAP
Most shortwave stations announce
broadcast times in UTC (universal
time coordinate). The time zone map
on the back of the receiver shows the
difference between UTC and each
time zone.
