Storing the strongest broadcast frequencies

BSM (best stations memory) lets you automatically store the six strongest broadcast frequencies under the preset tuning keys “Preset 1” to “Preset 6” and, once stored there, you can tune in to these frequencies with the touch of a key.

1Touch on the “Tuner” screen.

2Touch [BSM].

3Touch [Start] to begin a search.

“BSM” begins to flash. While “BSM” is flash- ing, the six strongest broadcast frequencies will be stored under the preset tuning keys “Preset 1” to “Preset 6” in order of their signal strength. When this is complete, “BSM” stops flashing.

pTo cancel the storage process, touch [Stop].

pStoring broadcast frequencies with BSM may replace broadcast frequencies you have already saved.

1Touch on the “Tuner” screen.

2Touch [Seek] to select the desired set- ting.

!All:

Seeks stations from both analog and digital broadcasting.

!HD:

Seeks from digital broadcasting only.

pIf you select “HD” on this setting while

[Blending] is set to “Analog”, the setting on [Blending] turns to “D/A Auto” automa- tically.

Tuning in strong signals

Local seek tuning allows you to tune in only those radio stations with sufficiently strong signals for good reception.

1Touch on the “Tuner” screen.

2Touch [Local].

3Touch [On] to turn local seek tuning on. To turn local seek tuning off, touch [Off].

4Touch [cPrev] or [Nextd] to set the sen- sitivity.

There are four levels of sensitivity for FM and two levels for AM:

FM: 1 — 2 — 3 — 4

AM: 1 — 2

p The FM “4” (AM “2”) setting allows recep- tion of only the strongest stations, while lower settings let you receive weaker sta- tions.

Switching the reception mode

If a digital broadcast reception condition gets poor, the tuner automatically switches to the analog broadcast of the same frequency level by default. If you want to prevent a frequent automatic switching, switch this setting to [Analog].
