THE FCC WANTS YOU TO KNOW

Your Realistic DX-375 AM/SW/FM-Stereo PLL Synthesized Receiver might cause
television or radio interference even when it is operating properly.  To
determine whether your receiver is causing the interference, turn it off.
If the interference goes away, your receiver is causing the interference.

To try to eliminate the interference:

    Move your DX-375 receiver away from the television or radio receiver.

    Connect your DC-375 receiver to an outlet that is on a different
    electrical circuit from the television or radio receiver.

    Contact your local Radio Shack store for assistance.

If you cannot eliminate the interference, the FCC requires that you stop
using your receiver.
