(3) MEMORY switch
When the unit is in the frequency display mode, pressing this switch
will result in the memorization of the current broadcast band, reception
frequency, and FM AUTO/MONO
mode.
This switch is also used to input custom memory names (see page 23).
FM MODE AUTO/MONDO selector switch
Use to select the auto stereo mode or monaural mode when listening
to FM broadcasts. The monaural mode has been selected when the FM
MONO indicator in the display section is lit.
Auto stereo mode:
Normally, leave in this mode for reception. When a stereo FM broadcast
is received, it will be automatically reproduced in stereo.
Monaural mode:
When receiving distant stations or stations with weak broadcast signals,
the input signal may be weak, thus resulting in increased noise during
FM stereo broadcasts. In this event, setting the receiver to the monaural
mode will reduce the noise. In this case, however, FM stereo broadcasts
will be reproduced in monaural sound.
NOTE:
This switch has no effect on reception of AM broadcasts.
@) TUNING switches
AUTO/MANUAL TUNING selector switch:
