HOW TO ENJOY FM STEREO
1. Select Stations Within Range - The best FM fidelity will he obtained from stations within the 10-40 mile range. Beyond that, noise or "flutter" may begin to appear due to the "line of sight" range limitations of FM signals.

SOLUTION: Reduce treble response by moving the treble control down (or to the left) in fringe areas. On EQ Radios, slowly slide the 10K control down.

2. Realize Tall Structures Can Interfere - Tall buildings or hills may cause "shadows" or cancellation of FM signals (this is similar to the "ghost" or "flutter" effect seen on television sometimes when airplanes are flying in the vicinity). It will sound like a "pop" or monetary "hiss".

SOLUTION: Reduce the treble or 10K setting to a lower volume.

3. Interference From Another Station - Although the circuits in DELCO receivers are the most advanced available, there are rare instances where a station heing listened to will he interfered with by another station. This only happens when the stations are on almost the same frequency and certain geographical criteria are present.

SOLUTION: Select another station or switch to a tape or CD
