even radio frequencies

twofour1 · 03-13-2013, 04:58 AM

Hi everyone,

Just bought a Z that was imported from USA and the radio only picks up uneven(.3, .5, .7, .9) frequencies which is the standard in USA but not here in Dubai so I can't tune in most of the local radio stations.

Is there a way I can get it to pick up on even frequencies as well??

Change the radio... Sorry... Lol

Maybe the dealer can reprogram the standard unit?

Check the Owner's Manual. There may be an option in the radio to switch between "even and odd tuning."

It's called Tuner Spacing, I don't know of any setting for these radios, I don't recall seeing any setting in the diagnostic or O/M, as someone else said, try the dealership and see if they import the cars as is or if they can set the Tuner Region and (If equipped) the DVD region.
