Quality of radio reception received (Local or DX) on Sony ICF-S10MK2 Pocket Radio is dependent on multitude of environmental factors, seasonal conditions, astronomical occurrences, principles of radio propagation, laws of physics, F.C.C. broadcasting regulations regarding broadcast power transmissions during nighttime hours and circumstances beyond your control. Reception changes based on time of day, atmospheric conditions, presence of sun spots, solar flares and solar storms during daytime hours, movement of radio waves from one part of earth to another, nearby power lines and electrical motors near home, proximity of appliances emitting RF interference to radio receiver, material home or room is made of, distance from broadcast tower(s) to home, presence of mountains, hills and skyscrapers in neighborhood, signal strength of broadcast station received and quality of antenna and radio receiver. Radio reception varies by geographical location. It cannot be determined in abstract if tuner design of pocket radio is responsible for quality of radio reception customer experiences. A digitally tuned pocket radio is not inherently superior in radio reception compared to analog counterpart. Sony ICF-S10MK2 Pocket Radio’s sensitivity and selectivity performance thrives, or dives based on quality, electrical design, thermal design and craftsmanship of its tuning circuitry, signal processing, noise filters, calibration of tuning dial and built-in AM/FM antennas. Accurate, clear, and drift-free reception for Sony ICF-S10MK2 Pocket Radio inevitably varies. It is not possible to give definitive answer as to exact distance radio broadcast is received at specific point of day or night. Only general range of broadcast reception is estimated, measured in miles, when determining if broadcast is capable of being received by Sony ICF-S10MK2 Pocket Radio. FM radio signals are broadcast at higher altitude than AM signals. FM Band radio interference is caused from multipath reflections of radio waves off tall buildings or nearby mountains in neighborhood. Reception area of FM signals range between 40-100 miles. FM coverage is shorter than AM radio wave coverage because FM signals travel in straight lines (line-of-sight) and have reduced interaction with earth’s ionosphere. FM monaural reception offers better sound compared to AM. FM mono signals are susceptible to less interference than AM radio broadcasts. FM Band broadcasts provide high-fidelity sound to target radio audience and shortest reception range on 87.5-108 MHz frequency band. AM Band stations on 530-1605 kHz frequency spectrum reduce power at night or perform maintenance operations on transmitter that adversely affect reception. Transmissions of AM radio broadcasts are longer than FM broadcasts. In the daytime, AM radio broadcasts traveling via ground wave transmission reach listeners within several hundred-mile radius. At night, AM signals roaming via sky wave travel hundreds or even thousands of miles away from intended radio market. DX reception of remote AM radio stations on Sony ICF-S10MK2 Pocket Radio is possible after sunset because of AM broadcaster’s ability to bounce signals off outer reaches of earth’s atmosphere to radio receivers outside of intended radio market. AM DX reception is best during winter months and at lowest point of performance in summer. An examination of various sources of radio interference is important subject pertaining to Sony ICF-S10MK2 Pocket Radio’s day-to-day performance. Most sources of radio interference come from entertainment devices within home emitting radio frequency waves. Radio frequency interference is caused by phenomenon occurring outside home, in immediate surrounding area of home, deteriorating atmospheric conditions and/or interference from adjacent broadcast frequencies on FM Band. Listeners hear interference from nearby electronic equipment in home from such items as computers, cordless telephones, microwave ovens, cellular telephones, televisions, stereos, compact disc players, electric power tools and household appliances. RF interference is caused from lighting equipment, metal objects and nearby broadcasting equipment. A competing broadcast station adjacent to station listened to occasionally bleeds into tuned station to degrade reception opportunities as well. Moving Sony ICF-S10MK2 Pocket Radio closer to window and away from devices emitting harmful RF interference improves AM/FM reception. Medium Wave Band coverage is expanded upon indoors with external omnidirectional passive antenna. For example, Terk AM Advantage Indoor Antenna makes use of wireless electromagnetic procedure known as inductive coupling to improve AM Band reception by placing antenna near Sony ICF-S10MK2 Pocket Radio.

Perceived loudness of Sony ICF-S10MK2 Pocket Radio depends on objective and subjective factors. Quality of Sony ICF-S10MK2 Pocket Radio’s headphone amplifier and mono speaker play crucial role in determining how loud the volume levels pocket radio can be played back at through stereo headphones or aloud during music sharing sessions. Most portable audio devices such as MP3 player, compact disc player, cassette player or pocket radio feature low-powered headphone amplifiers ranging between 5-15 mW at designated impedance and mono speaker rated at 100mW max RMS output power (at 10% T.H.D.). Conversely, headphone amplifiers found in component stereo equipment may be rated up to 500mW at selected impedance. A stereo receiver’s power amp section may be rated at 200 Watts RMS or more at 8 ohms impedance (at 0.09% T.H.D.) and is much more powerful than mono power amplifier found in Sony ICF-S10MK2 Pocket Radio. A stereo receiver can power stereo headphones with higher impedance rating of 70-300 ohms or greater more efficiently compared to Sony ICF-S10MK2 Pocket Radio. A stereo receiver or integrated amplifier makes use of Full-Size .25-inch (6.3mm) Stereo Headphone Jack to deliver increased amplifier power to home theater stereo headphones. Sony ICF-S10MK2 Pocket Radio uses smaller 3.5mm (1/8”) Mono Earphone Jack that can’t deliver the same amount of loudness as Full-Size Headphone Jack found on component stereo. A headphone driver’s sensitivity rating also plays a key factor in loudness perception on Sony ICF-S10MK2 Pocket Radio. It is important for consumers to purchase stereo headphones rated between 98-117db/mw on driver sensitivity specification to achieve satisfying loudness on Sony ICF-S10MK2 Pocket Radio. Sony ICF-S10MK2 Pocket Radio’s speaker produces outstanding loudness effects in less than favorable operating conditions on daily basis. Consumers looking for extra loudness to block out external unwanted environmental noise during private listening on Sony ICF-S10MK2 Pocket Radio will purchase stereo headphones with better than average sensitivity rating. Higher the sensitivity rating, louder headphones play without turning Volume Control up on Sony ICF-S10MK2 Pocket Radio. Loudness perception of Sony ICF-S10MK2 Pocket Radio is subject to limits of human hearing. Some customers hear sound waves better than others. Hearing levels of all Sony customers are not the same. Some customers report Sony ICF-S10MK2 Pocket Radio does not play loudly enough from mono speaker or connected headphones while others frustratingly opine pocket radio plays too loudly for their tastes when adjusting Volume Control. Sony ICF-S10MK2 Pocket Radio can reproduce the entire frequency spectrum of human hearing. A headphone amplifier can be purchased to augment headphone loudness from Sony ICF-S10MK2 Pocket Radio’s 3.5mm Mono Headphone Jack. Principles of radio wave propagation, laws of physics and recording quality of music being listened to determine whether there is extremely loud playback from Sony ICF-S10MK2 Pocket Radio’s mono speaker and/or attached stereo headphones. Customers should purchase Sony ICF-S10MK2 Pocket Radio to augment perception of loud volumes across wide variety of music or spoken word entertainment categories on AM/FM bands.

Unfortunately, I cannot recommend that you bring Sony ICF-S10MK2 Pocket Radio in for out-of-warranty repair to factory authorized service center. Repair costs including repair diagnosis estimate, replacement parts cost, labor fees and applicable sales taxes quickly add up. Out-of-warranty portable audio repair costs equal or exceed cost of new similarly performing Sony portable radio purchased at authorized Sony brick and mortar or online retailer such as Best Buy. Sony ICF-S10MK2 Pocket Radio damages such as water infiltration, exposure to mechanical shock, out of the ordinary operational performance or damage arising from accidental or intentional product abuse are not repairable.
There are troubleshooting steps to take before seeking warranty service, out-of-warranty repair service or purchasing replacement for malfunctioning Sony ICF-S10MK2 AM/FM Pocket Radio. Those steps include: 1. Check battery compartment for battery acid leakage. 2. If battery residue on battery terminals is noticed, clean terminals with gloves on and then reinsert fresh name brand AA batteries. 3. Always observe correct polarity in battery compartment. 4. I recommend national name brand alkaline 1.5V AA alkaline batteries for maximum reliable operation of unit. 5. Check for physical damage. 6. Has Sony ICF-S10MK2 AM/FM Pocket Radio been dropped, exposed to water, dirt, sand, dust, rain and/or direct sunlight? 7.

Ensure fresh pair of AA alkaline batteries are installed inside battery compartment of pocket radio. Sony ICF-S10Mk2 AM/FM Pocket Radio can be powered with environmentally friendly 1.2V NiMH rechargeable AA batteries. NiMH rechargeable batteries do not provide recommended 1.5V per AA battery specification indicated in operating instructions. AA rechargeable batteries offer slightly less performance with respect to audio quality and battery life compared to AA alkaline and lithium batteries. Keep unit stored in factory shipping container when not in use for extended time or when placing item on moving truck.
Do not attempt to service unit. Do not attempt to modify this set’s internal components. There are no user-serviceable parts inside unit. Accurate AM/FM reception is difficult to accomplish inside of parked car, moving car, subway, tunnel, basement, underground location, garage, store, or office building.
AM/FM reception often improves measurably during nighttime hours. Retain user manual for complete operating instructions, AA battery installation procedure, pictorial diagrams of controls, control descriptions, technical specifications, troubleshooting diagnostics and helpful troubleshooting resolution tips.
