10 kHz steps for AM.
If you press and hold a [TUNING] button, the
frequency will change continuously. Once you

when a frequency on which a radio station is
broadcasting is found. If you want to interrupt this
process, press the [CLEAR] button.
Tuning into weak stereo FM stations

[MODE] button to switch to Mono mode and listen to
the station in mono.
