Aug 29, 2005 8 Replies

hello I have a SC-811 in my volvo and I can listen only few radiostations, because this unit has " tune step " 0.2 MHz for example :



92.1 - 92.3 - 92.5 almost all stations are betwen this values :(

- do You know how can I solve this problem ?



thx Blyskacz



Yeah, ... Name radio-station that are on even decimal frequencies like 92.0 or

92.2 or 92.4

By law all radio stations are in the odd decimal frequencies ! Blyskacz a écrit:

Move to the USA! Tell them you are part of the coalition of the willing at immigration, it should work well! Sorry no useful answer, however.

Maybe not in your country...

Quite a few of them in Europe, as it happens.

In the USA, that's the case. Regulations on radio frequency usage vary around the world, though.

Yes; unfortunantly, you have a North American spec radio; you'll need to remove it and replace it with a European spec unit.

This works on a SC-816, not sure about the 811:

Radio off, ignition on or accessory position. Press and hold preset 5, then turn the radio on. Your display will read "USA". Release the 5 button, then press it once more. Your display should now read "AUS". Turn the radio off, then back on. Your tuner should now stop at 0.1 MHz steps.

Don't replace it - I bet there's a way to reprogram it...I don't believe there are different radios for differnt markets any more...

Per manual for an american c70; for radio sc-813/816/900(1) It will probaly work for yours. Let us know.

------- Switch off the radio; hold down preset button 5; switch on the radio; repeat this till relevant market appears (US),(AUS),(EU)

Good Luck

Hello

IT WORK on sc-811 too ! :-) Thanks :-)
