To improve AM reception for recording
When recording an AM broadcast, the reception may
contain noise interferences that were not present prior

unit to the position (1, 2 or 3) in which noise
interferences are minimal to obtain optimum
reception for recording.
To protect your important recorded cassettes

accidental recording of your important cassettes. If
you wish to use the cassette for recording again, cover
the opening of the broken tab with adhesive tape.
