Priority PTY (Programme Type)

This function allows presetting of a programme type such as music
category, news, etc. You can listen to a programme in 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.
