DIRECT FREQUENCY ENTRY
When the desired frequency is known, it can be entered via the numeric keypad (17) and the ‘Enter’ button (20). First, make sure that the correct band is selected - AM, FM or SW.
Most AM and Shortwave frequencies are designated in kilohertz (KHz), e.g. 810 KHz or 9475 KHz. All FM frequencies are designated in megahertz (MHz), e.g. 102.9 MHz. To enter such frequencies:
1.Press/release the ‘Enter’ (20) button.
2.Enter the frequency using the numeric keypad (17).
Sometimes Shortwave frequencies are designated in megahertz (MHz). If you encounter such a short- wave frequency and it has less than three digits after the decimal point (e.g. 15.10 MHz or 6.92 MHz), then use the following method to enter it. However, if there are three digits after the decimal point (e.g. 15110 MHz or 5.975 MHz), use the method described previously.
1. Press/release the ‘Enter’ (20) button.
LOCKING THE TUNING KNOB
To prevent accidentally tuning off of the radio sta- tion, the tuning knob can be locked while the radio is turned on. To lock it, press and hold the TUNING MODE button for about three seconds. Notice that the
TUNING MODE – FAST TUNING
– SLOW TUNING
The TUNING MODE button (8) allows selection of fast or slow tuning when using the tuning knob or the UP/HOUR and DOWN/MIN controls. FAST or SLOW appear in the display. When tuning with the tuning knob (28), fast tuning is usually appropriate. When tuning with the UP/HOUR and DOWN/MIN buttons, use slow tuning to tune in stations and fast tuning to move up or down frequency at a rapid rate. Then use slow to actually tune in sta- tions. Experiment with this control to see which tuning mode that you prefer.

The SW IF SET control (13) shifts the intermediate frequency oscillator, which may help to minimize interference. This functions both for AM and short- wave. When activated, pIF shows in the display.

The BANDWIDTH button (14) is used when listen- ing to AM and SW stations. Its purpose is to help minimize interference. The preferred setting is WIDE, which provides best audio fidelity. Use NAR- ROW when there is interference. W or N will appear in the display.
