How do you take out the radio for a 2003 9-3 Saab?
1st you would need to know if the car is a 93 convertable or sports sedan. If the sports sedan, when you say radio...do you mean the face plate on the dash that you see..this is the ICM...the radio component or the ecm is in the dash...
Why are radio waves good for transmitting data over large distances?
Because they can be reflected by the ionosphere of the earth's atmosphere and thus can be send to longer distances. There is one more benefit that in case of shortwave bands, the attenuation is low than at the MW or FM frequency. Attenuation is loss of signal strength as the waves traverse the space.
Where to find old audio segments from KMOX radio of Richard L Evans and his thoughts for the day?
Write to Deseret Book Company, Salt Lake City, Utah. They have a two cassette set of Richard L. Evans' "sermonettes" or Thought For the Day as it appeared on KMOX back in the 70's and 80's. I still listen to those classics.
What frequency does RF waves fall in used by commercial radio broadcasting stations?
There are basically two radio broadcast bands as we know them. One is the AM (amplitude modulation) band, and the other is the FM (frequency modulation) band. The AM band is from 520 KHz to 1700 KHz (0.52 MHz to 1.7 MHz). The FM band is from 87.5 MHz to 108.0 MHz. Other bands are used commercially, but these two bands represent the broadcast bands used in the U.S.
Note: 1 KHz = 1,000 Hz (Hertz, cycles per second, or cps), and 1 MHz = 1,000,000 Hz
In the USA ...
-- Commercial AM radio stations operate with carrier frequencies
spaced every 10 KHz between 550 KHz and 1700 KHz.
-- Commercial FM radio stations operate with carrier frequencies
spaced every 200 KHz between 88.1 MHz and 107.9 MHz.

Practical Answer If the distance between Earth and Venus is to be maximum, then the two planets would have to be on opposite sides of the Sun. There would be no way to send radio waves to Venus in this situation as the waves cannot travel through the Sun. So, in reality, this question has no answer.
Theoretical Answer For the sake of curiosity, lets assume the waves travel through the Sun in a straight line.: Earth's average distance from the sun = 93,000,000 miles Venus' average distance from the sun = 67,200,000 miles Max separation (opposite directions from the sun) = 160,200,000 miles Speed of radio (light) = 186,282 mi/sec Time for a radio or radar return = 2 x (160,200,000 / 186,282) = 1,720 seconds = 28-2/3 minutes(rounded)

Can radio waves be produced with a higher frequency than gamma rays?
No, radio waves are less energetic than gamma rays. This is so because gamma rays have a higher frequency causing the waves to be closer together.
However both radio and gamma waves are a form of light (electromagnetic radiation).
How far is the range for cb two way radio?
it depends on many things, the amount of power pushing the wave, how high or low the frequency is, obstructions to the frequency... line of sight which is FM waves go approx 1 km per watt of power pushing it... though lower waves will go a little further on the other hand higher waves will be able to get though more stuff everything from buildings, trees, dust, and clouds ext
How do you Stop automobile AM Radio ignition interference?
As a minimum, the engine hood needs to be electrically bonded to the car body. This is usually done with a short length of flexible copper braid that clips to the sheet metal of the hood and the sheet metal of the car body. Additionally, the 12VDC power supply to the radio should incorporate an electrical filter to prevent electrical noise from entering the radio via its power connection. Third, the antenna cable from the radio to the antenna needs to be shielded and the shield must be in good condition, with no breaks from the radio chassis to the point where it connects to the external antenna.
Although electrical generators have been largely supplanted by alternators, old cars that still use generators need to have filter capacitors added at the generator output to trap high-frequency brush arcing noise. Also, the breaker points in old car ignition systems are frequently the source of electrical popping noises in radios, and that can be reduced with the capacitor that is normally bridged across the points. If an alternator produces a whining noise in the radio, it often indicates one or more failed rectifier diodes in the alternator. In that case the diodes should be replaced, or if the rectifier diodes are build into the alternator, the alternator should be repaired or replaced.
Better radios will incorporate additional electrical filtering and voltage regulation of their power supply internally, and will use circuit designs that minimize sensitivity to power supply noise.
How do you get a radio code for 2008 Honda Pilot?
The radio's serial number is necessary when you contact Honda (800 number or local dealer) and request the code number to that particular radio. I don't own a Pilot but I've heard that some Honda radios will display the radio's serial number when you hold down buttons 1 and 6 simultaneously and turn it on.
How do the frequencies of infrared visible and ultraviolet light compare?
Visible light imagery only reveals what is reflected from the Earth's surface and atmosphere.
Infrared imagery detects the differences in thermal energy, which are used to map either cloud cover or surface temperatures. They allow meteorologists to determine the temperature of a cloud.
What they have in common:
Weather satellites used both of these equipment to observe the atmosphere.
The wavelength of a signal at 89.10 MHz is 3.37 meters.
Divide the speed of light, which is about 300,000,000 meters per second, by 8,910,000.
What is the local radio station for Raleigh NC that carries the Michael savage show?
You can find Micahel Savage's radio program in Raleigh on "FM Talk 101.1 WZTK".
Why is radio important to society?
We use the radio everyday, whether you're in your car listening to music, or listening to the news, or just entertainment. Or you're in your house or on a boat and you don't want to get lost at sea. Plus, there are more than 33,000 radio stations around the world and 12,000 in the United States. Also there are more than 2 billion radios in use. If we did not have the radio you would be bored in your car with no music, and no news. Some radios are even used in the government, especially the military and the air force. Before television, there was just the radio, so families would sit around it and listen too music, people talking, news, and instantly be entertained.
What radio station broadcasts the New York Yankees in Charlotte area in NC?

History of radio broadcasting in Nigeria?
Radio was first introduced to Nigeria in 1933 and was called the Radio Distribution System and was used by the BBC throughout the 1930s. In 1930 the Ibadan station was created. By 1956, Nigeria had created the Nigerian Broadcasting Corporation and became the primary broadcasting company in the country.
Who are the radio announcers for the Chicago Bears?
Jeff Joniak and former Bears linebacker Tom Thayer provide commentary for Chicago Bears fans around the world on Chicago's WBBM AM 780. Jeff has been announcing games since 2001. Before that, he provided pre-game coverage since 1997, and before that he covered the Chicago Bulls from 1991 to 1996.
Tom has an incredible devotion to the team he was a part of and helped take to a 1985 season Superbowl championship. He provides color commentary with fervor unlike most players-turned-commentators and an animated bias to Chicago that delights fans everywhere.
How do you remove the radio from 2002 Ford Explorer?
Use the removal tools to pull the radio assembly out of the dash - note: you do NOT need to remove the plastic trim piece! :)
- Insert the tools into each pair of small holes on either side of the radio face
- They're all the way in when you feel them hit an indent, or a bit of 'click'
- Push the tops of the tools to the *OUTSIDE* while pulling the radio out from the dash. This is more "art" & feel than specific instructions.
- Disconnect the 2 or 3 wire harness connectors off & disconnect the radio antenna wire.
As you can imagine, re-installing is just a matter of connecting the wire harnesses & antenna - align and push the radio back in until you hear/feel the side-clips click back into place.
TIPS:
- Be sure to spend the few dollars for the wire harness kit - This saves you from having to CUT the factory wiring. If you sell the car, it takes only 10 minutes to put the factory radio back.
- Many places even give you the radio removal tools when you buy a radio from them, like Crutchfield.com
- Do not try to save a few dollars and spend far more than $5 worth of your time with home made tools
In my opinion, the only way to properly install an after-market CD player in any vehicle would be to make a trip to your local electronics store and buy the adapter (harness) for that vehicle. They are pretty inexpensive and a lot more dependable.
first disconnect the positive& negative battery cables.then wait for two minutes.then insert removal tool into the four holes in the control panel. if you don't have one use a metal coat hanger and bend it so it has a u-shape.then insert them in all four holes about 1-1/2 inches until you feel the clips release.then push the tools outward and pull the assembly out of the instrument panel.disconnect the wiring harness & vacuum hoses. if you want to replace it with a CD player you will have to get the kit.go to www.scosche.com and they will have what you need.good luck!
Don't want to spend the money? You can insert 4 small slender rods in the 4 holes on the left and right side of the radio (small Allen wrenches or very long nails, or similar). insert until you feel some tension, then apply slight pressure towards the outside of the radio while pulling the radio out. There are clips that you need to press in towards the radio to release it. Sometimes, you can do one side at a time.
-donville
ClarifiedThe answer that donville provided is excellent, however it doesn't take you through it step by step.You can use two long screwdrivers and put them into the side closest to the cassette dock. Then you can push away from the stereo while grabbing the front. This will kick out the one side of the device. Do the same on the other two holes, but have a firm grip on the front of the stereo. Otherwise the side that you have popped out will pop back in. From here you can pull the stereo out and tilt it up so the hook above the stereo will clear the top of the main housing.

OK, I have a Mercury Sable 93 and 94 - if you have the stock radio that is a similar in size to a retail headunit, then you have to buy the Ford radio removal tools. I'm not sure of the specific name, but they're in the shape of a U, and only cost about $3 to $4. Put them in both sides until you feel an indent - push the tools outward while pulling the radio towards you.
You can usually take the factory stereo mounting brackets off and put them on the new radio and it should pop in and lock and release the same way you took the factory radio out.
DO NOT USE WIRE HANGERS!! For only about $3 you can buy the Ford radio removal tools made for this.
Also, you do not have to remove any dashboard trim - the radio will slide straight out of the opening with the tools. I have found that the clips can be taken off the old radio and screwed onto the new unit.
I also agree to buy the wiring harness! It is $15 well invested and they are readily available from most autoparts stores. Crutchfield.com will usually even throw them in if you buy a radio from them. (if not free, very inexpensive.)
Cut up a wire clothes hanger so that you make a tool shaped like the letter C. Ensure that the "C" is fairly long by cutting one end of the hanger close to the middle. Now you have your tool, look for two holes on either side of the stock radio and insert your "tool," into the holes about 1 to 1 1/2 inch, this should give you enough friction to pull it out. It will take a couple tries but you'll know you're doing it right when the radio partially comes out. Eventually it will pop out.
You only need the standard Ford radio, U shaped removal tools, readily & cheaply ($3-5) available at an auto parts store, Walmart, Kmart, etc.
(Don't try to save a few dollars and spend far more than $5 worth of your time with home made tools)

The same way you would change any Ford/Mercury factory car stereo. You use either the U-shaped Ford removal tools you can buy at any auto parts store (kept usually near the stereos, cost $5 at Advance/Discount Auto). Insert these in the two holes on either side of the factory stereo until you feel them slide in a little easier. This has released the retaining clips inside the stereo housing. Pull your hands apart as if stretching a piece of bubble gum or something, and pull out. The old factory stereo should slide out pretty easily.
Unhook the connectors in the back, the thicker black cable with the metal spear-like tip is your antenna wire.
You also need a wiring harness which you can buy for anywhere from $10-20 at any auto parts store or electronics store that sells car stereos. Most will have a simple wiring diagram printed on the package, you just splice the wires together, nearly all are color-coded and the new harness will use the same colors. Usually are 8 wires for the speakers, one colored and one striped for each of the four speakers (solid colored is positive, striped is negative) that will actually be on one harness (grey, I think) and the other harness (they do come as a set) should be black and for the power other connections. One blue wire is for the antenna control, which you can ignore if you have a separate switch on the dash to control it. Red wire is positive power, black is negative/ground. I think there is a yellow wire but hell if I can remember what its for, but like I said, there should be a basic wiring diagram on the package for the wiring harness.
Once you have the wiring harness connected to the new stereo (make sure you used crimp connectors or electrical tape, do NOT use duct tape or any other sort of tape), you just hook the new harness to the existing one in the car, and plug the black antenna cable into the obvious round hole in the back of the new stereo (some will also have a black line coming out of the stereo rear with a female connector to plug the antenna cable into). Once you have these connected, slide the stereo into the dashboard and make sure it fits tightly. You may need a mounting bracket kit, but in my experience, its usually not necessary.
Its fairly simple, the hardest part is cramming the wires back into the dashboard so the stereo will fit in tightly. The wiring harness connecting takes anywhere from 10 minutes to an hour, depending on your experience and confidence. My recommendation is to take the new stereo and the wiring harness inside and splice them together while you're watching some football or non-existant hockey.
Cut two pieces of coat hangar 5" long. Bend into "U" shape around a broom handle. On each side of the face of the radio are two holes. Insert your new tool approx. 1 " into the holes. Apply pressure outwards to release the clips holding the radio in the dash and pull the radio towards you.
... or you can just go to any sound shop or Wal-Mart and buy the tool for a couple of bucks... they'd have it by the head units and speakers.
Ford radio removal tools are available for just a few dollars from any auto parts store. Insert one into each set of 2 access holes on each side of the face of the radio unit. When inserting the tool, you will feel a spot where the notched ends have caught into a slight indentation. Push the tops of the tools outward (left and right) while simultaneously pulling the radio forward, away from the dash.
When you have the radio out, you'll see that the tools are actually releasing the clips on the side of the radio.
you will need to unscrew your dash and pull off the front plate of your dash, then you will need to unscrew the stock radio, then you will need to go ahead and pull out the adapter from the back of your radio. -Shocker
There are 2 small round holes on each side of the radio body faceplate. There are tools sold in sets of 2 that are inserted into the holes to release the catches. When inserted and the catches are released, the tools are used like handles to pull the stereo head out.
take 4 home trim nails in and push them twards the doors(left 2 to the left and right 2 to the right) pull out of dash
You can also go to O'Reilly auto parts and pick up a Ford Radio Removal Tool for 5 bucks,to go perfectly in and pop, then remove
