EON tuning

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

EON tuning is useful if the type of program you want to listen is

 

 

not currently being broadcast. It allows you to set the unit to

 

 

automatically change to a particular type of program when one

 

 

begins.

 

 

 

 

EON tuning only works if RDS data and EON signals are being

 

 

received.

 

 

 

 

EON tuning finds programs on stations that share EON signals.
