To learn about shortwave we recommend the two publications below, published yearly and available from major booksellers. Additionally, the Internet is a great resource for learning about shortwave. Go to your favorite search engine and type in `shortwave listening'. Shortwave enables listening to broadcasts over vast distances including other countries and continents. Getting very close to a window and holding the radio improves shortwave reception. SSB enables listening to shortwave two-way communications using the single-sideband mode, such as amateur radio, Morse code, weather-fax transmissions and other signals often referred to as `utility' signals. The Internet and your local library are great resources to learn more. Tune to the shortwave frequency of your choice, using the methods described.

All memories are randomly programmable, meaning that any kind of frequency can be stored into any memory. Note that when storing into an already occupied memory position, its contents will be replaced with your new entry. Store the station by pressing one of the #1-7 buttons for about 2 seconds or until the square around the memory location in the LCD blinks. To store another station, get out of memo mode by pressing PAGE/TIME and tune to the station; then repeat the steps above. Turn on the G6 and enter MEMO mode by pressing the PAGE/ TIME button, causing MEMO to appear on the left side of the display.
