If you push either the
or
button while the Radio is finding a station, the tuner will stop at the frequency
tuned at the time you pressed the button.
If SEEK doesn’t find a tunable station, the Radio will show “NO STATION FOUND”
AUTO STORE:
AUTO STORE temporarily stores the 6 strongest stations onto pushbuttons 1-6. Press and
hold the BAND/AUTO button for more than 2 seconds. You will hear a beep and AUTOSTORE will appear
on the display until all of the presets have been saved in the band. AS will be displayed while AUTO STORE
is active. Pressing BAND/AUTO will not affect the other bands. For example: if you press BAND/AUTO while
listening to FM1, the presets on AM, FM2, FM3 and WX will not change. Pressing and holding BAND/AUTO
again will cancel AUTO STORE, and the original presets will be restored.
SCAN:
Press SCAN/PSCAN and release to scan all stations on the band you are using. When a strong
enough frequency is found, the Radio will play for 8 seconds before continuing to scan. To end the scan,
press SCAN/PSCAN again. The Radio will beep and display SCAN plus the frequency.
PSCAN:
Press and hold SCAN/PSCAN for more than 2 seconds to scan the presets on the band you are
using. When a strong enough frequency is found, the Radio will play that station for 8 seconds and then
continue scanning. The display will show PSCN, the frequency, preset number and the current band.
Preset scan will continue until you press SCAN/PSCAN again.
Setting the Presets
The six numbered pushbuttons allow you to preset 6 of your favorite stations per band and easily return to
them with the touch of a button. To set the presets:
1. Turn the receiver on.
2. Select the band.
3. Tune to the desired station.
4. Press and hold one of the 6 numbered buttons for more than 2 seconds to store the selected station.
During the 2-second set time, the Radio will be muted and the preset number will be displayed. When the
preset station has been set, you will hear a beep, and then the audio and selected preset number will return.
5. Repeat steps 1-4 for each pushbutton.
Pressing a preset button in the future will tune the Radio to the station you set on the band to which you are
listening.
Using the Weatherband
NOAA Weather Radio is a service of the National Weather Service. It provides continuous broadcasts of the
latest weather information directly from the National Weather Service. Taped weather messages are
repeated every four to six minutes and are revised every one to three hours or more frequently if needed.
Most stations operate 24 hours a day.
The weather for your location can be found on one of 7 stations. When in Weatherband mode, the display
will show WX and the channel number. The channel can be changed using the SEEK
/
buttons, the
up/down buttons and can also be preset to the pushbuttons.
The frequencies associated with each channel are as follows:
1. 162.400 MHz
5. 162.500 MHz
2. 162.425 MHz
6. 162.525 MHz
3. 162.450 MHz
7. 162.550 MHz
4. 162.475 MHz
The National Weather Service operates approximately 372 stations. Nearly 90 percent of the nation’s
population is within listening range of an NOAA Weather Radio broadcast.
