Radio
Example 3: To select a FM station
transmitting on
93.1 MHz, enter 9,3,1
Example 4: To select a FM station
transmitting on
103.5 MHz, enter 1,0,3,5
Note:
All AM stations have allocated
frequencies ending with a "0". All FM
stations have allocated frequencies
ending with an odd (uneven) digit
after the decimal point.
Broadcasters sometimes may not
give their exact frequency but the
next closest even number.
Manual tuning
After selecting the desired wave
band, depress the function control
button (10).
Depress and hold down the "UP" or
"DOWN" side of the station seeker
bar (14) to tune the radio on
0.1 MHz (100 kHz) increments on the
FM band or in 1 kHz increments on
the AM band through the entire
frequency range.
Release the button when the
desired station is tuned in.
If, after depressing the function
control button (10), the station
seeker bar (14) is not activated
within eight seconds, the manual
tuning mode is ended automatically.
Push button tuning
Six FM stations and four AM stations
can be stored in memory and called
by activating the appropriate
buttons marked 1F - 6F for FM or
7A - 0A for AM stations.
To store stations in memory
Any FM station frequency displayed
on the panel (8) can be stored on
any button marked 1F - 6F by
depressing the button desired and
holding it until the display has
changed from the "old" setting and
a "blank" to the new frequency to be
stored.
Showing the "old" setting first allows
for reconsideration of the decision
to store. If it is desirable to leave the
"old" frequency in memory rather
than exchanging with the "new" one,
just release the button. The "old"
frequency will remain in memory.
Any AM station can be stored simi­
larly on any button marked 7A - 0A.
Stereo reception
The stereo indicator (7) lights up if a
stereo station is received.
The radio is equipped with an auto­
matic stereo/mono switch providing
a smooth change-over rather than a
hard, sudden switching, thereby
reducing noise and interference.
The stereo indicator will remain lit
even if the receiver has changed to
the mono mode and will turn off at
an antenna signal considered insuf­
ficient to provide acceptable recep­
tion quality.
