Nuvo NV-T2DF 4.1Custom Regional Setup, Tuning Parameters, 4.3Fine Tuning, 4.4Audio Output Level

4.1Custom Regional Setup: Some countries operate at a tuning standard outside the four preset regions. The Custom setting allows specific parameters. One determining factor for tuning is the “Pre-emphasis”. The two choices for this a are 50µS (microseconds) and 75µS. The custom setting also allows for specific setting of the minimum and maximum tuning capability and the individual tuning steps for FM and AM.

4.2Tuning Parameters: This section determines how the T2 tunes up and down. Seek/Scan Levels for each band, FM, AM, and Weatherband sets the signal strength parameter for searching stations. The lowest level 0 causes the tuner to stop at any frequency with a very low signal. Level 4 (High), stops only when a very strong signal is detected. The factory default is Level 2 (Medium), which searches for a moderate signal. This setting changes the necessary signal threshold, which is the minimum signal level required for the T2 to recognize it and lock on to the frequency.

4.3Fine Tuning: When checked, Fine Tuning changes the tuning standard for FM from the default tuning to .05 MHz step tuning, and AM will tune by single kHz increments, rather than the default 10 kHz for USA and Canada, and 9 kHz for Europe. The smaller tuning steps allow access to all station frequencies.

4.4Audio: Output Level increases or decreases the level of signal from the audio output of each tuner. This setting and balance, treble, and bass are best left at the default settings for use with an audio distribution system such as NuVo systems, that have built-in equalization capability. You may want to make adjustments when the T2 is being used as a stand-alone component with an amplifier.
