ceiver finds the stations with strong
signals and stores them in memory in
order by signal strength.
Rotary Tuning Dial — lets you manu-
ally tune desired frequencies. You can
select a higher tuning increment for
faster tuning or a lower one for fine tun-
ing, or lock the dial to prevent acciden-
tally changing the tuned frequency.
Memory Lock — prevents accidental
frequency changes.
Control Lock — prevents accidental
setting changes.
Sleep Timer — lets you set the receiv-
er so it turns itself off after a length of
