Audio
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 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.
Under certain conditions, however,
alternative frequency tuning may
temporarily disrupt normal reception.
With ‘AF-ON’ selected, the unit
continually evaluates signal strength and,
if a better signal be comes 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.
With ‘AF-OFF’ selected, the original
stored frequency remains selected. In
this mode, ‘AF-OFF’ will be displayed
every time the unit is turned on.

News broadcasts
Some audio units interrupt normal
reception to broadcast news bulletins
from stations on the FM waveband or
RDS-EON linked stations, in the same
way as traffic information is provided.
During news broadcasts, the display
alternates between the station name
and ‘NEWS’. News interrupts are
broadcast at the same preset volume
level as traffic announcements.
