6. Press the [ ] key to advance the cursor to Auto Search. Select

Auto Search ON: Radio stops scanning when it finds the
strongest signal (highest S/N ratio). To
find strongest signal, the radio scans all

Therefore, use this setting where signal
propagation is poor.
Auto Search OFF: Radio stops scanning on the first signal it
finds. We recommend that you set Auto
Search to OFF where signal propagation
is good.
