Hi everyone, in 2007 I asked if anyone could help me with a radio problem on my US spec RSV over here in the UK http://www.venturerider.org/forum/showthread.php?t=9716 I did post it on the wrong forum though. This is a reply to my question for the UK riders with US spec RSV's. Problem is UK and US radio frequencies are different, US radios go up in 0.2 MHz steps and UK radios go up in 0.1 MHz steps so many UK stations in between the US ones are unobtainable. You can get 102.3 but not 102.2 you get the idea. I spoke to Clarion and others but they could only suggest that I fit a frequency converter. Easier said than done. I have now managed to buy one on e-bay I could not find any anywhere until last week http://www.yaki.co.uk/mpuk/ (this is the Japanese converter though but it shows the connections etc) they are fairly easy to fit but you need to access the radio under the front fairing behind the headlight to couple the unit between the areal and the radio and power it up with a positive supply. Search for AMERICAN US BAND EXPANDER (FM 0.1 Mhz). They claim to be the only company that makes them in the UK. It works great, loads of UK stations. Only one downside it records 107.2 as 107.3 etc or something like that. But I can live with that. Hope this is some use to someone. Best Wishes. Old Miner.
