THE FCC WANTS YOU TO
KNOW
Your clock radio might cause TV or radio
interference even when it is operating
properly. To determine whether your clock

by:
• moving your clock radio away from

from the receiver
• contacting your local RadioShack
store for help
If you cannot eliminate the reference, the
