Scanning (Memory Preset Station Tuning) in the AM, FM, and Aircraft Bands

As you can store up to 25 frequencies in each of the other bands, you can also move from one stored frequency (station) to the next in each band. You cannot set presets that cross from one band to another.

1.To tune to memorized Station Presets that you have stored, that are valid station frequencies, briefly press

SCAN/MEM. Memory and Scan appear in the display.

If you inadvertantly store three FM frequencies for which there are no stations in your area, no presets will be available.

.Repeatedly press ▲ to move from the first stored frequency to the second and so on.

3.If you press ▼, an error tone sounds. If you want to remove a frequency from memory, when you press

▲ and that frequency is displayed, press and hold

SCAN/MEM until the double beep sounds. Memory disappears from the display and the frequency is removed from memory. It is no longer available for that session.

Note: if no frequencies have been stored and you press SCAN/MEM, an error tone sounds.
