The 10 kHz step size is practical for tuning the U.S. and Canadian broadcast bands. However, the step size can be changed to 9 kHz to permit practical tuning of European broadcast stations. The tuning step size is held in nonvolatile memory and thus is not lost during power failure or battery changing.
