Bass and Treble
Slide the Bass or Treble controls to the right to increase the Bass or Treble
response. The center "flat response" position is indented for easy location.
Loudness (LD)
The LD key is used to increase the low frequency response at low to medium
volume levels. This provides compensation for the human ear which does not
respond well to low frequencies at lower volumes. When selected, "LD" is
displayed.
Liquid Crystal Display (LCD)
The LCD indicates the station frequency and the selected band along with any
other selected functions. The display is permanently backlighted for low light
viewing.
Band (BND)
The MST65 has 4 selectable frequency bands labeled FM1, FM2, FM3 and
MW. Bands FM1 - FM3 are identical and cover the FM band from 87.5 MHz to
108 MHz. The MW band covers the AM frequencies from 531 kHz to 1620
kHz. The separate FM bands allow stations from different areas to be stored
and kept separate. Up to 6 channels in each band can be stored in memory,
making 18 FM and 6 AM channels available.
e.g. Hometown FM stations can be stored using FM1. When traveling to new
areas, new local stations can be located and stored using FM2 or FM3, leaving
the hometown stations in FM1 for when you return home.
To change bands, press BND. Each press will advance to the next band i.e.
FM1 - FM2 - FM3 - MW - FM1 etc.
Tuning
Manual Tuning (< >)
To manually tune the radio, press the < or > keys. Press > to tune to a higher
frequency and < to tune to a lower frequency. Release the key when the
desired frequency is displayed. The sound is muted while tuning.
Seek Tuning (>>)
To automatically tune the radio to a station, press the >> Seek key. The radio
will automatically seek upwards through the selected band until a station is
found. Tuning then stops on that station. To tune to another station, press the
>> key again.
