Note
If the AC power cord is disconnected for about one week,
the preset stations will be cleared from the receiver’s
memory, and you will have to preset the stations again.
Tuning preset stations (preset tuning)
You can tune directly to a preset station by entering its
preset number. If you don’t know which stations are
preset on which numbers, you can tune by scanning
the preset stations.
1
Select TUNER.
The last received station is tuned in.
2
Press SHIFT to select a memory page (A, B or C),
then press the number.
For example, select A and then press 7 to tune in
the station preset as A7.
You can also tune by scanning the preset stations
Press TUNER and then DISPLAY so that the frequency
display appears. Then press or – to select the
station you want. Each time you press the buttons, the
preset numbers change as follows:
Indexing
You can index preset stations and then use the index
names to scan specific stations in the preset memory.
You can also use the index feature to label program
sources so that the receiver displays the names of the
components you connected, for example, “VHS”.

STR-GA7ES
Indexing preset stations
You might find that too many preset stations make it
hard to find the station you want. This receiver
includes a feature that lets you group preset stations by
name (station index) using up to 8 characters.
For example, if you label all of your preset jazz stations
“JAZZ,” selecting “JAZZ” lets you skip other presets
and scan only the stations labeled “JAZZ.” Note that
you cannot assign more than one station index name to
each preset station.
1
Select TUNER.
The last station you received is tuned in.
2
Tune in the preset station you want to create an
index for.
If you are not familiar with how to tune in preset
stations, see “Tuning preset stations (preset
tuning)” above.
3
Press DPC MODE repeatedly until the INDEX
indicator lights up.
4
Create a station index name by using the
DIGITAL PROCESSING CONTROL knobs as
follows:
Turn CHARACTER to select a character.
Then turn POSITION to move the cursor to the
next position.
To insert a space, turn CHARACTER until a blank space
appears in the display, the space is between " and A.
The station index is stored automatically.
If you’ve made a mistake
Turn POSITION until the character you want to change
flashes. Then select the right character.
5
Repeat Steps 2 to 4 to assign index names to other
stations.
You can display either the index name or frequency
Each time you press DISPLAY, the display switches
between the frequency and the index name.
