Performance Features

Special FM RFAmplifier

Double-Diffused Metal Oxide Field Effect Transistor (DMOS-FET) RF amplifier increases sensitivity and Cross Modulation rejection.

External AM RFAmplifier and Antenna

The TM1 includes a RAA1 Remote AM Antenna that con- tains an electrostatically shielded AM RF Amplifier Stage for maximum noise rejection. It can be located in a remote area, away from sources of interference and can be posi- tioned for the best possible reception of even the weakest AM stations.

FM Stereo Auto Blend Circuitry

An automatic variable stereo separation control circuit is used to reduce background noise when receiving weak ste- reo stations.

Preset Stations and Permanent Memory

Nine AM and nine FM Station Presets, making it easy to listen to your favorite stations. Station Presets and Func- tions Modes are retained in Permanent Memory even when AC power is turned Off.

Alphanumeric Fluorescent Display

The C45 Multi-function Front Panel Display indicates sta- tion frequency, station preset number, signal strength, stereo and broadcast band.
