controls can be used to select up to six preset AM stations, twelve FM
stations (six in FM1 and six in FM2) and six on the remaining AutoStore
band.

helpful on trips when you travel between cities with different radio

control to activate AutoStore. AST

the remaining memory preset controls will all store the last strong
station available.
