Naming Preset Channels
While receiving a preset FM or AM station, a maximum of 8 characters consisting of letters, numbers and some symbols
can be stored, for example to represent the station name.
You cannot assign a name to the RDS station (for European model) and the SAT RADIO channel (for North American
model).
As an example, assume an FM station with a frequency
of 89.50 MHz has been stored in preset number 2 and
will be given the name “ONKYO.”

frequency while you are entering the characters.
