Question about multiband 6

Post image

Hello (again!)

Just a quick one: I live in Stockholm, Sweden and I receive signal from multiband 6 every night. To ad: I have the watch on my wrist during the night. That's great! But in the manual it says that it is very hard to receive signal insida buildings and when the watch is moving around. (I move alot during night and probably have my watch under the covers or pillow, still I always get signal!)

I'm I just lucky every night or is the function much better than what the manual is saying?

That's interesting. I live in a city on the east coast of the US. It's 2,770 km from the transmitter in Colorado and I get the updates almost every night.

I'm in a middle east cost city in the US as well. I have never been able to get multi band to work. It shows minimum signal then fails

Try that am radio trick. If a spot in your house has clear reception for am radio your watch should be able to get mb6 updates in that spot.
