Description:
This portable radio/cassette recorder is a short-wave enthusiast's dream, offering FM, AM, and short-wave radio reception (all short-wave bands from 120 to 11 meters), as well as a built-in cassette recorder that can be programmed to record specific stations at specific times. The ATS-818ACS also features a beat-frequency oscillator for single sideband (SSB) and continuous wave (CW) (i.e., Morse code) reception--broadcasting methods often employed by amateur radio practitioners. This is a dual-conversion receiver, meaning it passes the incoming signals through two intermediate stages to eliminate interference and more precisely select its incoming channels. It has five tuning methods: direct frequency input, auto scan, manual scan, memory recall, and rotary dial. The ATS-818ACS has 45 memory presets to help you hop to favorite stations in a jiffy. The receiver's output power is 800 mW, and it uses a single 3-inch, 4-ohm speaker. For operating power, the unit needs four D batteries with an optional three AA batteries for backup. An AC adapter is included. Other features include a radio/buzzer clock alarm, a wide/narrow filter for AM radio, an adjustable sleep timer, RF gain control, a tone control with safety lock, a signal strength and battery indicator, and dual time display for local time and Coordinated Universal Time (UTC). Continuous AM coverage ranges from 150 to 29999 kHz, while FM reception covers 87.5 to 108 MHz. The ATS-818ACS comes with an external antenna adapter and a short-wave handbook.
