Priority PTY ( Programme Type )
This function allows presetting of a programme type such as

the preset programme type as the unit automatically gives
priority to the preset programme type when it begins
broadcasting, and interrupts the programme you are
currently listening. This feature is functional when your unit is
set to a mode other than the LW and MW.
