Harmful effects of radio waves?

Radio waves aren't harmful at its usual pattern of operation. They are harmful only when a strong signal is close to a person.

It can cause cancer and other problems. Radio waves may also cure. All waves have different results.

When you turn up the volume on a radio what changes?

You are changing the capacitance of the main component that determines the

frequency of the "local oscillator" in the radio. The local oscillator mixes with all

of the radio signals that come in from the antenna, and converts them all down to

lower frequencies. The one signal that winds up converted to 10.7 MHz in an FM

radio (or 455 KHz in an AM radio) is the one that gets passed on and processed

by the rest of the guts of the radio. All the others get filtered out and discarded.

What was the radio act of 1912?

When the Titanic had sunk on April 15th, 1912, the radio officers before the sinking had lost their wireless radio and nobody could contact them to make sure that nothing was going wrong. They also had it set up to where you had shifts using the wireless radio, so there was a time where nobody was their to hear your cries for help or anything. That was a big problem when the Titanic had sunk because they couldn't have gotten the singles out soon enough and so therefor, it caused more people to die and less ships to help the survivors. So congress passed a law saying that their needed to be someone always available and someone always working the wireless radio. That is my small summary of the Radio Act of 1912.

What does the w and k stand for on radio stations?

Back in the 1920s, when there were enough radio stations that governments decided it was time to step in and regulate them (to avoid having their signals devour each other), there was an international conference to set up a workable worldwide system, and unique station identifications for each nation were created. The USA was allocated 'A', 'N', 'W', and 'K' as the first letter in all station call-signs licensed in this country. So far, commercial stations (AM. FM, TV) have been given call-signs beginning only with the 'K' and the 'W', but ham stations and other services get calls beginning with 'A' and 'N', in addition to 'W' and 'K'. To answer your question directly: The 'W' and 'K' mean that the station with that call-sign is licensed by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) to operate in the USA. Similarly, Mexico has 'X', Canada has 'C' and 'V', Spain has 'E', Germany has 'D', Russia has 'U', etc. etc.

Where is the radio fuse located in the fuse box of a 1992 Saturn SL 2?

Answer

Hey just had the same problem in my 92 SC2. The radio fuse box is to the left of where the passengers feet would be. The thing is on mine (not sure if its the same with them all) the fuse was labeled "chime" instead of the actual radio fuse. Might want to get a fuse tester and check them all.

Actually there is a Radio fuse, in the inside fuse box, however as mentioned above, usuallky it is the "chime" fuse which will blow.

Is the radio harmful?

Yes, radio waves can be harmful if a person is careless around them

to a foolish degree.

Examples:

-- Jury-rigging the interlock switch in your microwave oven, so that

you can run it with the door open.

-- Sitting down in a lawn chair to eat your lunch, read the newspaper,

and catch a nap, 6 feet in front of a Doppler Radar antenna.

In which fuse box is the radio fuse in the Mercedes Benz c240?

There may be a remote fuse as well in one of the fuse blocks... but the Radio itself has one right in the back corner, requiring the radio to be pulled to get access to it.

The special tool to do this is pretty inexpensive as I seem to remember paying less than $10 USD, a few years ago...

And if you consider that Mercedes charges $143.00 to pull it and replace the fuse (although along with this charge they also replaced two dash lamps as well), the price of the tool is a bargain.

What happened to Sam from Sales at WBAP radio?

I'll give you the simple answer, budget cuts. I was a full time employee beginning in 1984 and was contract labor since 1997 and did the radio show from the house. WBAP was sold in 2007. The company that owns WBAP decided to fire about a dozen people in February of 2008 and I was one of the heads to roll. Sammy, Willie, Dr.Ben, Elvis and about fifty other character voices I did for the WBAP morning show went with me. Currently, I am out of the radio business and work on a shrimp boat in Bayou Labatrie, Louisana. Good Luck and Keep a Tight Line! John H

Why will your radio in your car only work when you push on the knobs?

I am not sure excatly the situation.

Are you saying that you need to press the knob to hear sound and if you let go you don't hear anything. If that's the case, first thing I need to know is if your radio using the volume button as the power on/off such as turning down the volume or depressing the knob. If this is true (and that's the knob you are refering to) then it could be a loose connection and by pressing the knob you are completing the connection and when released it looses the connection.
