¢ If the HITS switch is pressed during STATION NAME input (see
page 30), the receiver performs a memory search in order of ascending
station number for memorized stations whose names begin with the
same letter as the station just input.

not yet been input to ''0'', searches for the corresponding frequencies,
and stops on the first station it finds.

* The system searches for stations within successive 1MHz ranges for
FM and 100 kHz ranges for AM. During DIRECT ACCESS tuning, it
searches up and down for a station until it reaches the edges of the
band. If no receivable station is found within the band range, the
receiver returns to the state it was in before the HITS switch was
pressed.
