Chapter 06:
Using the tuner
Listening to the radio
The following steps show you how to tune in to FM and
AM radio broadcasts using the automatic (search) and
manual (step) tuning functions.
Once you are tuned to a station you can memorize the
frequency for recall later—see
Saving station presets
below for more on how to do this.
1
Press the FM/AM INPUT SELECTOR button to
select the tuner.
The front panel display shows the band (FM or AM) and
the frequency. If you want to change the band, press
FM/
AM
again.
2
Tune to a station.
There are three ways to do this:
•
Manual (step) tuning
To change the frequency one step at a time, press
/–
.
•
Automatic tuning
To search for stations in the currently selected band,
press and hold
/–
for about a second. The
receiver will start searching for the next station,
stopping when it has found one. Repeat to search for
other stations.
•
High speed tuning
Press and hold
/–
for high speed tuning.
Release the button at the frequency you want.
Improving FM stereo sound
If the tuning (
) or FM stereo (
) indicators don't light
when tuning to a stereo FM station because the signal is
weak, press the
MPX
button to switch the receiver into
mono reception mode. This should improve the sound
quality and allow you to enjoy the broadcast.
Saving station presets
If you often listen to a particular radio station, it's
convenient to have the receiver store the frequency for
easy recall. This saves the effort of manually tuning in
each time.
You can memorize up to 30 stations, stored in three
banks, or classes, (A, B and C) of 10 stations each. When
saving an FM frequency, the
MPX
setting (see above) is
also stored.

above for more on this.

The display shows a blinking memory class.
