CHECKING OUT YOUR MD 100 

 

1.

 

Place your power switch to the “ON” position (A on diagram). This should 
turn on your tuner’s meter lights and frequency display. 

 
2.

 

Place your STEREO/MONO switch (C on diagram) to the Stereo setting. 

 

3.

 

Place your bandwidth switch (D on diagram) to BW1. 

 

4.

 

Place your Mute switch (B on diagram) to “ON” position.  

 

5.

 

On your preamplifier/ integrated amplifier select the input that your MD 
100 tuner is connected to. 

 

6.

 

Rotate the tuning knob on your tuner (F on diagram) until sound is heard 
through your speakers, now fine tune this station using the center tuner 
meter (I on diagram) and signal strength meter (G on diagram) as 
indicators. Your stereo light on the face of your tuner should be on. Place 
the stereo/mono switch (C on diagram) to the Mono position, your stereo 
light should now go off. Now turn the stereo/mono switch back to the 
Stereo position and your stereo indicator light should turn back on.  

 

7.

 

You are ready now to search through FM frequencies in search of your 
favorite stations. If you encounter difficult reception situations please read 
the Controls and Functionality section of your manual.  

 

8.

 

Approximately 48 hours of “burn in” should eliminate any measure of 
drifting that you may encounter with your new tuner. Please note that when 
your tuner is turned off for more than a couple of hours, upon powering 
“ON” your tuner, you may encounter a slight amount of drift on the station 
you were last tuned to. Please do not touch the dial, as when the tuner 
warms back up, it will return to where it was last center tuned.
