I have a Sony world band radio and a Toshiba walkman (both digital tuning) and they all have a little switch that allow user to choose between 9 and 10 kHz step. Yours has got to have a switch. BTW, I think my Sony manual says that the American stations are 9 kHz apart while the rest of the world uses mostly 10 kHz. Am I wrong? Cheers! J.Y.
