North America vs. other receivers... difference!?
 
What is the difference!? Does it have something to do with frequency interval(s)!? I think it does...
Help!?

its a different frequency set, like am is to fm. I can't remember the signal offhand, but I have check. I have a european stereo at one of my friends places with it, so I can get back to you.

Thank you, 18secFerio, for your help...
I understand that some brands/manufacturers come w/ a toggle switch to switch between North American & other countries' AM/FM band set. Which would those include!?

I could be wrong.. but far as I know..

Korea / USA same frequency.. even TV.. NTSC..
Japan = they use lower FM frequency. 89.1 and below..
Europe = FM frequency goes up by multiple of 0.5..
(for example.. 91.5, 92.0, 92.5.. etc..)

European bands go 98.15, 98.20 etc
Ours go 98.1 98.2 98.3 etc

Most are not European compatible. For example, Pioneer and Sony will not do this while JVC will.

So, could I use a european receiver here in the US!?

slacker4eva 09-18-2003 05:44 PM

so is my home stereo european. it goes in .05 increments. mebbe they just made it universal for US and europe so it'd be easier for them.

toyman99 09-21-2003 08:57 PM

Yes, an European receiver should work here, but wont you find that when it stops on .05 channels annoying?

Also, I am not sure about end and start spectrums. For example, 88.10 to 107.5 here (roughly), where does European start and end.

Lastly, what about AM?
