Station Tuning
Automatic tuning (AUTO TUNING)
This frequency search is started by pressing the button.
Short presssure: Search is started in direction of higher frequencies.
Long pressure: Search is started in direction of lower frequencies.
The search function operates with the tuning steps
9 kHz on LW,
5 kHz on SW,
9 or 10 kHz on MW.
If a lower step value has been adjusted, the unit will automatically se- lect the tuning steps indicated above. For 9 kHz/10 kHz switching on MW, see chapter "Adjusting the tuning steps", page 16.
The automatic search will stop as soon as it has found a station with sufficient field strength for good reception. It can then be restarted with the ¢ AUTO TUNING button (brief or long pressure).
Station Tuning with the Numeric Buttons
(Direct frequency entry)
For this, the frequency of the station you wish to tune to must be known. You can find these frequencies in station tables or radio gui- des. You can enter the frequency in MHz or kHz, or as meter band on SW.
Confirm the entries with the ¢FREQU./METER button.
On FM: MHz indication.
On AM: kHz indication.
Examples: |
|
|
Desired frequency | Entry order | |
99.00 MHz | 99. | / ¢ FREQU./METER button |
99.00 MHz | 99.0 | / ¢ FREQU./METER button |
99.00 MHz | 99.00 | / ¢ FREQU./METER button |
99.10 MHz | 99.1 | / ¢ FREQU./METER button |
99.10 MHz | 99.10 | / ¢ FREQU./METER button |
99.10 MHz | 99.100 / ¢ FREQU./METER button | |
7000 kHz | 7000 | / ¢ FREQU./METER button |
It is absolutely necessary to enter the decimal point, even if no fur- ther figures follow. The decimal point is the indication that the entry is made in MHz. Without decimal point, the entry is interpreted as kHz entry.
