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 whenever you want to listen to that station. This saves the effort of manually tuning in each time. This unit 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 previous page) is also stored.

1Tune to a station you want to memorize. See Listening to the radio on the previous page for more on this.

2Press T.EDIT (TUNER EDIT).

The display shows ST. MEMORY, then a blinking memory class.

3 Press CLASS to select one of the three

classes then press ST to select the station preset you want.

You can also use the number buttons or the MULTI JOG dial (front panel) to select a station preset.

4 Press ENTER.

After pressing ENTER, the preset class and number stop blinking and the receiver stores the station.

Naming station presets

For easier identification, you can name your station presets.

1Choose the station preset you want to name.

See Listening to station presets below for how to do this.

2Press T.EDIT (TUNER EDIT).

The display shows ST. NAME, then a blinking cursor at the first character position.

3 Input the name you want.

Choose a name up to four characters long.

46

Use the MULTI JOG dial (front panel) or the

ST buttons (remote) to select characters.

Press ENTER to confirm a character. If no character is input, a space is input.

The name is stored when ENTER is pressed after choosing the fourth character.

Tip

To erase a station name, simply repeat steps 1 to 3 and input four spaces instead of a name.

Once you have named a station preset, you can press DISP when listening to a station to switch the display between name and frequency.

Listening to station presets

You will need to have some presets stored to do this. See Saving station presets above if you haven’t done this already.

1Press FM, then press CLASS to select the class in which the station is stored.

Press repeatedly to cycle through classes A, B and C.

2 Press ST

to select the station preset

you want.

 

You can also use the number buttons on the remote control to recall the station preset.

Changing the frequency step

If you find that you can’t tune into stations successfully, the frequency step may not be suitable for your country/region. Here’s how to switch the setting:

1 Switch the receiver into standby.

2 On the front panel, press STANDBY/ ON while you press and hold the TUNER EDIT button.

The channel tuning step alternates between 10K STEP and 9K STEP each time you do this.
