Presetting Radio Stations

You'll most likely want to preset the receiver with the
radio stations you listen to often so that you don't have
to tune in the station every time. The receiver can store
a total of 30 FM or AM stations. You can store the
stations on preset numbers combining 3 characters (A,
B and C) and numbers (0 to 9). For example, you can
store a station as preset number A1, B6, or C9.
