STATION ORDER

Use “Station Order” to sort the sequence of the listed stations. There are three orders – Alphanumeric, Ensemble and Active.

1While listening to a DAB broadcast, press front panel’s [TUNER MODE]

button and then [TUNE			/	] to select “Station Order.” Press [ENTER].
2 Toggle [TUNE	/	] to select through “Alphanumeric”, “Ensemble”
and “Active”.

3Press [ENTER] to select desired station order.

Alphanumeric

This is the default setting. Stations are arranged by numbers first and then alphabetically by letters.

Ensemble

Digital radio is broadcast as groups of data called ensemble. Each ensemble contains a number of stations, transmitted at a set frequency. When “Ensemble” is selected as the mode of station order, the radio stations are arranged in the order of their ensemble names.

NOTE

Ensemble is also interchangeably termed as “multiplex” by other broadcast providers.

Active

Active stations are listed at the top of the channel list. Those channels that are in list but have no service in the area will be displayed last in the channel list.

DRC VALUE

The level of compression of stations can be set to eliminate the differences in dynamic range or sound level between radio stations. Popular music would normally be more compressed than classical music, resulting in possible different audio levels when changing from one station to the other. Setting the DRC to “0” means no compression, “1/2” indicates medium compression and “1” shows maximum compression. No compression is recommended, especially for classical music.

1While listening to a DAB broadcast, press front panel’s [TUNER MODE]

button and then [TUNE			/	] to select “DRC”. Press [ENTER].
2 Toggle [TUNE	/	] to select through “DRC 0”, “DRC ½” and “DRC 1”.

3Press [ENTER] to select desired DRC level.

MANUAL SCAN

This option allows you to directly tune to a desired channel and include it in the service list (if not yet available at the time). You can also use manual scan to assist you in positioning the DAB antenna for best reception of the desired channel.

1While listening to a DAB broadcast, press front panel’s [TUNER MODE]

button and then [TUNE / ] to select “Manual Scan”. Press [ENTER]. The current channel and frequency are shown in the upper line of the VFD. The “bars” at the lower line of the VFD indicate the signal strength level of the current channel.

2 To select other channels, toggle [TUNE			/	] to step through the
channel list. Release [TUNE	/	] when you have arrived at your

desired channel. Channel and frequency are shown in the upper line of the VFD. The “bars” at the lower line of the VFD indicate the signal strength level of the current channel. To improve the reception of the selected channel, adjust or reposition the DAB antenna until the best reception is indicated.

3Press [ENTER] to tune the selected channel.

NOTE

The number of ensembles and stations that could be scanned will vary depending on your location.
