Alternative frequencies
Many programmes broadcast on the
FM waveband have a programme
identification (PI) code, which can be
recognised by audio units. If your
radio has alternative frequencies (AF)
tuning switched on and you move
from one transmission area to
another, this facility will search for and
switch to a stronger station signal, if
one can be found. When selected,
the unit continually evaluates signal
strength and, if a better signal
becomes available, the unit will switch
to that alternative. It mutes while it
checks a list of alternative
frequencies and, if necessary, it will
search once across the selected
waveband for a genuine alternative
frequency. It will restore radio
reception when it finds one or, if one
is not found, the unit will return to the
original stored frequency.
Regional
Regional mode controls the
behaviour of AF switching between
regionally related networks of a
parent broadcaster. A broadcaster
may run a fairly large network across
a large part of the country. At various
times of the day this large network
may be broken down into a number
of smaller regional networks, typically
centred on major towns or cities.
When the network is not split into
regional variants, the whole network
carries the same programming.
Regional mode ON: This prevents
random AF switches when
neighbouring regional networks are
not carrying the same programming.
Regional mode OFF: This allows a
larger coverage area if neighbouring
regional networks are carrying the
same programming, but can cause
random AF switches if they are not.
