When you know the frequency of the desired station, the frequency
can be input directly using the STATION CALL (number) switches in
the following way
1. Press the POWER switch to the ON position,
NOTE:
Be sure to turn the TAPE 2 MONITOR switch OFF when listening to
AM or FM broadcasts.
2. Select either FM or AM using the BAND selector.
3. Press the DIRECT ACCESS switch.
4. Input the desired station frequency using the STATION CALL
switches.
When inputting the tuned stations into the station call switches, please

Once the station frequency has been input, the receiver tunes into that
frequency. If the input frequency falls below the lower or higher limit
of the receiver's receivable frequency range (FM: 87.5 MHz — 108
MHz, AM: 10 kHz STEP 530 kHz — 1,700 kHz, 9 kHz STEP 531 kHz
— 1,602 kHz) "LOWER" or "UPPER" is displayed, indicating that the
frequency which has been input cannot be tuned in.
5. Adjust the MASTER VOLUME and tone as desired.
To cancel frequency input
if none of the STATION CALL switches {(*1 — *O) are pressed for a
period of approximately five seconds, the unit returns to the state it was
in before the DIRECT ACCESS switch was pressed.
Notes regarding FM direct access tuning
* When the CHANNEL STEP switch is set to the FM 100 kHz position,
there is no need to input the last digit "'O" of the desired station
frequency. Depending on the station frequency, inputting the first two
or three digits is often sufficient.
HITS function
Press the HITS switch during frequency input and the remaining digits
are assigned zeros. The receiver then searches over a frequency band
edge from that center frequency for the nearest station and tunes in
the first one it finds. If no receivable station is found within the band
range, the receiver returns to the state it was in before the switch was
pressed.
