is switched back to current station again. In above operation, a customer listen to a wrong program
or mute sound for a while.
1) EONTA LOCAL mode:
When the filed strength level of EON linked is less than the threshold level, the radio does not switch
that station, and a customer can hardly listen to any disturbances.

2) EONTA DISTANCE mode:

When AF switching mode is selected, the radio checks the signal strength of AF all the time. The
interval of checking time of each AFs depends on the signal strength of current station, from a few
minute for strong station to a few seconds for weak station. Every time that new AF is stronger than
current station, it switches over to that frequency for very short time, and NEW FREQUENCY is
displayed for 1-2 second. Because the mute time of AF switching or checking time is very short, it is
almost inaudible in case of normal program.
During FM mode, when AF is on, SEEK, (SCAN), AUTO-MEMORY function can only receive and
save RDS program.
When pressed long, AF mode is converted to REGION ON/OFF mode.
REGIONAL MODE ON:
