SETUP TUNER SETUP REGION

Sets the tuner region. The four regions are USA, EUROPE, JAPAN and E. EUR. The table on the next page lists the band limits and incre- ments for these regions.

Note:

The tuner user interface will not allow illegal frequencies to be entered. It will always set at the closest valid frequency. For example, if the RV-8 has USA set as the current region, entering 107.8MHz will result in 107.9MHz being the actual tuner frequency. If the value is less than the lowest frequency, it will set it to LO LIMIT for the appropriate region. Likewise, if the dialed value is larger than the highest allowed frequency, it will actually set it to the HI LIMIT for the appropriate region.
