SR2 – 5 • BBC London: an intelligent per spective on w orld aff airs • Radio Canada International: editorial quality similar to BBC • Radio Moscow: powe rful signals, increasingly honest and o.
SR2 – 6 you, you'll be in a better position to choose a more elaborate receiver. While there are various multi-band portable ra dios available, you can expect to pay at least $100 for a receiver offering a signi ficant improvement over y our trusty SR2.
SR2 – 7 varactor diode tuning. The varactor (D3) forms an L/C (Inductor/Capacitor) tank circuit with T3. Increasing the vo ltage on the varactor diode with R21 (Tuning Pot) increases the capacitance of D3 thus increasing the frequency output of the LO sec tion.
SR2 – 8 RSSI circuit is controlled by the value the feedback resistor R17. If you are commonly using a small antenna and listenin g to weak signals, increase the value of R17 to customize the resp onse indication of D2, the signal strength LED.

SR2 – 18 58. Install C9, 1µF electrolytic capa citor. Check polarity when installing. 59. Install C11, 10 µF electrolytic. Observe correct polarity before installing. 60. Install R16, 270 ohm [red-violet-brown]. PROGRESS SUMMARY Now is a good time to take a break.
SR2 – 19 72. Install the battery clamp. Position battery and holder so as not to cover nearby PC board mounting holes. Use the method for securing the clamp that is most convenie nt for you, such as : • wire lo oped through clamp and PC board holes, soldered.
SR2 – 20 provide a ground connection. 4. If an indoor antenna is necessary, simply make it as long as possible and as high up from conc rete floors as you can. 5. W hen installing any outdoor antenn a, BE VER Y CAREFUL not to let your antenna wire come in co ntact with electric power lines.
SR2 – 21 4. Turn ON the receiver. After adjus ting the volume to a pleasant level, you should hear som e shortwave station s by turning the Tune Control, no matter how any of the adjustable coils h appen to be se t. While listening to any kind of station, w hether broadcast or Teletype, etc.
