MANUAL UP/DOWN TUNING
(TUNE TRK+/TUNE TRK-)
Momentarily pressing and releasing either TUNE/TRK button will activate the
manual tuning function, whereby FM stations may be selected in 200KHz in-
crements, up or down and AM station may be in 10KHz increments. Pressing
this button for 2s will activate the automatic seek. The radio will seek to the next
station in the + or - direction and stop and remain at that frequency. During the
upward or downward seek operation, LOC (local) appears on the display panel,
and then disappears when a strong stereo station is encountered (ST appears
on the display).
10 .MONO/STEREO OPERATION
During FM radio operation, when the signal is broadcast in stereo, the stereo
mode is indicated by the ST indication on the display panel. If the FM signal
is broadcast in monaural instead of stereo, the stereo indication will disappear.
The stereo indication will also disappear when the signal strength is greatly
diminished, or when a station on either AM band is selected.
11 .PRE=SET SCAN(PS)/AUTO-STORE TUNING(AS)
Press this button momentarily to scan the stations pre-set in each AM band
and each FM band. The unit will stop at each pre-set station for approximately
5s before continuing to the next pre-set station (the pre-set station number on
the display panel will flash during pre-set scan operation). Press the button
again momentarily to stop pre-set scan operation and remain on the selected
frequency. If no buttons are pressed during the scan, the unit will continue to
scan the band In use. Pressing and holding the button for longer than 2s will
activate the AUTO-STOR(AS)tuning feature which will automatically scan and
enter up to 6 local area stations Into the pre-set memories on the band in use.
If you have already set the pre-set memories to your favorite stations, activat-
ing the auto-store tuning feature will erase those stations and enter the new
local ones. This feature is most useful when traveling in a new area where you
are not familiar with the local stations.
