Automatic channel preset can be repeated whenever desired, should new channels become available. Channels can be manually added or deleted. Front Panel Audio/Video Inputs Provide added convenience to the user when recording tapes directly from a camcorder to the VCR.

Channel tuning is by random access with the remote control transmitter or scan tuning up and down by remote or at the set.
