Listening To Radio Broadcasts; Using The Tuner; Tuning Into A Radio Station - Onkyo TX-NR1000 Instruction Manual

Listening to Radio Broadcasts

Using the Tuner

One of the features of the TX-NR1000/TX-NR5000E that
is most frequently used is its ability to play FM and AM
broadcast radio stations. The TX-NR1000/TX-NR5000E
provides a number of listening modes perfect for listening
to the radio and getting the most out of your audio system.
Also, by presetting radio stations that you listen to
frequently, you can select them easily by pressing the
[CH/DISC +/–] button on the remote controller.
Setting the AM Tuning Interval
For the Asian or Australian models, you have to adjust the
"AM Frequency Step" setting according to your area.
Use the Setup menu to adjust the "AM Frequency Step"
setting.
To perform this setting, go to "Hardware Setup" → "AM
Frequency Setup" → "Frequency Step," and select "9 kHz"
or "10 kHz." For details on this setting, see page 87.
