Subject: PM question on the tuner


Fountain Inn, SC United States
I got a PM from member Gleb Prokofyev (GP1967) from St. Petersburg, Russia in which he asks, "Is it possible to change the tuner location from USA to Europe?"

I'm no expert on radio frequencies in Europe so I can't be sure they aren't different. If so, does anyone know if Victory re-calibrates the tuner for European Visions?

Can anyone shed some light on this?

Well, I spent 3 years in Germany and listened to Armed Forces Radio on a standard fm radio, so I would assume they accomadate us just the same. However, I think there is some difference in upper and lower freqs. So yes.

JAM, there is a way to change it to the Europe freqs. I just looked in the service manual and I don't see how to do it. I remember something about going into the audio sub-menus, by holing down mode button, but I can't remember. If I find it I'll post it here.

Many new autos have a zone setting for radio. Since Victory sells beyond the 48. Im betting the Vision radio is similar. May take dealer equipment to set.

Check this link http://www.vision-riders.com/bb/forums/thread-view.asp?tid=757&post... and on step #8 see if there are other options other than USA.

Dear All,
Thank you for your help.
Under tuner location there are two other than USA options - Europe and Japan. The difference between US and EU is the frequency step. .5MHz for US and .1Mhz for EU. Now I can tune in to ALL available stations
