My American Alpine manual states the following: FM 87.7 - 107.9 MHz, AM 530 - 1710 kHz

What are your tuning ranges?

thanks,

Well, here's what I found at Panasonic's UK support site:

FM 87.5 - 108 MHz
AM (MW) 531 - 1602 kHz
AM (LW) 153 - 279 kHz

So, I guess we should be able to use a European deck in the US, right? Although, we'll lose a little AM range from the bottom and top.

Maybe it's time to start looking at some of those European Alpine decks.

There isn't really anything gained or lost in the different tuner ranges. European (Canadian I think, too) use a 9kHz step on the AM band (note all the European AM boundary frequencies are divisible by 9). As long as the unit isn't pre-programmed to tune in 9Khz jumps, you should be okay.

The only snag on the AM bands is that our tuning steps are 9khz rather than your 10khz. Aside from that you'll be fine

Edit: sorry Jason you beat to to that!
