Skradgee Posted August 11, 2006 Report Share Posted August 11, 2006 I've got a question for anyone who knows about this. I bought the Australian version of the MZ-NHF800, so it only has an AM/FM tuner. If I get a different version of the remote (the US version), would the tuner pick up AM/FM/TV/Weather Band signals? I probably wouldn't listen to those much, but it'd be nice to have.::goes to minidisc.org to do some research:: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

QRP72 Posted August 12, 2006 Report Share Posted August 12, 2006 ...I bought the Australian version of the MZ-NHF800, so it only has an AM/FM tuner. If I get a different version of the remote (the US version), would the tuner pick up AM/FM/TV/Weather Band signals? ...As Jaylen pointed out through his(?) link, yes it will.I was in your exact same situation with an AM/FM only tuner remote and an australian version of NHF800.The radio tuner is inside the remote.Note that you cannot make a non-radio MD into a radio-enabled one: the connector is shaped differently.As for the reception quality of TV and Weather, it is reasonable to expect a faint signal.For me weather channels can only be listened in a quiet area, not outside on a busy city street, even tough I'm only a few miles from a Weather transmitter (in Montreal, Canada).

A440 Posted August 12, 2006 Report Share Posted August 12, 2006 Note that you cannot make a non-radio MD into a radio-enabled one: the connector is shaped differently.Mostly that's correct. But the NH700 will accept the same remote as the NH800, complete with radio reception. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skradgee Posted August 12, 2006 Author Report Share Posted August 12, 2006 Awesome. I had a hunch that would work, and it's probably been discussed a billion times already. So helpful...as always. Thanks a lot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
