3.Set OUT – CH9 – CH19 on top of the TRC-237 for the channel you want to tune:

•To quickly tune to Channel 9, set it to CH9. 9 flashes on the display.

•To quickly tune to Channel 19, set it to CH19. 19 flashes on the dis- play.

•To tune to any channel other than Channel 9 or Channel 19, set it to OUT. The previously selected channel number appears on the display.
