RDS (Radio Data System) tuner | 5 |
The receiver is equipped with a RDS tuner that provides several convenient tuning functions: RDS Auto Memory, to automatically preset up to 40 RDS stations broadcasting different programs; station name display, to show you the name
of the current broadcast station; and PTY search to let you tune stations by program type. | ¶ |
On screen Radio Text
Although most RDS compatible tuners and receiver's can display the name of the current broadcast station, this receiver goes one step further by allowing you to display the station name, as well as any other text messages broadcast from the current station, in large easy to read characters on the screen of your monitor TV. You can even display radio text from an
RDS station while enjoying a different source component!¶°
PTY (Program TYpe) search
Lets you tune stations by specifying the type of program you want to hear.º
EON (Enhanced Other Networks) reservation
The EON function lets you monitor information on other stations so you can receive traffic, news, or information programs as soon as they are broadcast, even they are broadcast on a station different from the one you are currently listening to. When the broadcast ends, the receiver returns to the original station. When listening to KENWOOD source components connected with system control cords, the input selector on the receiver automatically switches to the tuner when a
program you desire is broadcast. | ¤ |
Dual room installation capability
In addition to the standard "A" speaker output terminals for use in your main system, this receiver also incorporates separate "B" speaker terminals and "Room B" RCA video and stereo output jacks. This system lets you use the remote control to
control and output audio and video to "Room B" independent of "Room A." | %u |
New TRAITR transistor adopted in the final stage
A new TRAITR transistor which features superior temperature tracking characteristics has been adopted in the final stage of the power amplifier block. This new TRAITR transistor combines a temperature compensation resistor with an emitter resistor and final transistor to provide ideal temperature compensation characteristics and minimize distortion caused by temperature variations.
