Preset Tuning - Technics SD-S747 Operating Instructions Manual

Preset tuning
By presetting the desired broadcast stations into the memory chan-
nels of this unit, broadcast stations can be selected simply by press-
ing numeric button(s). (Refer to page 23 for tuning.)
- Before presetting
How many broadcast stations can be preset?
A total of 30 FM and AM stations can be preset.
How is presetting done?
The two following methods are available.
• Automatic memory presetting
Automatic memory presetting allows this unit to automatically
search for broadcast stations and then preset them into mem-
ory.
With this function, searching proceeds from the frequency cur-
rently being displayed and continues through higher frequen-
cies, (up to 107,9 MHz for FM, up to 1710 kHz for AM) and
broadcast stations are preset in the order in which they are
located.
With this method, the channel ranges that can be preset into
the memory for different bands (FM or AM) are set as foflows.
O_annel
For FM broadcast stations ................................................. 1-30
For AM broadcast stations ............................................... 21-30
If the FM stations (channels 1--30) ere preset end then the
AM stations (channels 21-30) are preset:
Because this unit can accommodate a total of 30 preset chan-
nels, the settings for FM channels 21-30 will be replaced by
the AM settings which were subsequently preset, and the
channel allotment will be as shown below.

• Manual memory presetting
The desired broadcast stations can be preset into the desired
channels by the user.
This can also be used as a method for changing selected
broadcast stations that were preset in "Automatic memory pre-
setting".
Please remember this:
if a new broadcaststationis preset into a channel,the setting
for the broadcaststationwhichwas previouslyentered in that
channelwill be automatically erased.
