In the normal FREQUENCY tuning mode, press a TUNING button (CH UP/DOWN on the remote) and release to manually jump to the next station frequency, regardless of whether or not a station is broadcasting on that frequency. For auto frequency search tuning, press and hold the TUNING button for approximately one second. An AUTO indicator will appear in the front-panel dis- play and the tuner will begin scanning up or down through the frequencies until the next available signal is detected. If this is not the desired station, repeat the automatic tuning procedure to find the next station. Weak sta- tions will be skipped during auto tuning.

NOTE: Select the FREQUENCY tuning mode by pressing the TUNE button on the remote or toggle between FREQUENCY and PRESET modes by pressing the P-TUN button.

In the PRESET tuning mode, press a TUN- ING button (CH UP/DOWN on the remote) and release to jump to the next memorized station preset.

NOTE: Select the PRESET tuning mode by pressing the PRESET button on the remote or toggle between FREQUENCY and PRESET modes by pressing the P-TUN button. A PRE- SET indicator appears in the display when PRESET TUNING is activated.

In the RDS PTY search mode, press a TUNING button (CH UP/DOWN on the re- mote) to select the desired program type from the scrolling list in the display. See the section on RDS tuning for more details.

NOTE: Several indicators in the front-panel display assist tuning. A large display shows the tuned frequency. A TUNED indicator lights when a sufficiently strong signal is received. A ST indicator lights when a stereo FM signal is received.

Station Presets

The RSX-1057 can store up to 30 station presets for recall at any time using the NU- MERIC buttons on the front panel. To memo- rize a station:

1.Tune to the desired station, AM or FM.

2.Press the MEMORY button on the front- panel or remote. A MEMORY indicator will flash for five seconds in the front-panel display.

3.While the MEMORY indicator is flashing, press the number of the preset where you wish to store the station frequency. For ex- ample, to memorize the station as preset 3, press the 3 button. To memorize preset 15, press the 1 button followed by the 5 button.

4.A previously stored frequency is erased from memory when a new frequency is memorized for the same preset number.

To tune to a previously memorized station, just press the preset number on the NUMERIC but- tons. For example, to tune to preset 3, press the 3 button. To tune to preset 15, press the 1 button and then press the 5 button.

NOTE: If the TUNER is not already the se- lected input, pressing a NUMERIC button on the front-panel activates the TUNER. If using the NUMERIC buttons on the remote, first manually select the tuner input, if not already active.

The NUMERIC buttons can also be used for direct access tuning (see next section).

DIRECT Button

FRQ DIRECT Button

If you know the frequency of the desired sta- tion, you may tune it directly using the DIRECT button and the NUMERIC buttons.

1.Press the DIRECT button on the front panel or the FRQ DIRECT button on the remote to change the NUMERIC buttons from station preset to Direct Access mode. The station frequency in the front-panel display will change to a series of four bars, represent- ing the digits of a station frequency, with the first bar flashing.

2.Enter the first digit of the station frequency using the NUMERIC buttons. The digit will appear in the frequency display and the

second bar will flash. Enter the remain- ing digits of the frequency. When all of the necessary digits have been entered, the receiver will tune to the displayed sta- tion frequency. Note that entering a sta- tion frequency is slightly different for the USA and Europe:

In the USA:
FM87.50MHz	Press: 8>7>5
FM101.90MHz	Press: 1>1>9
AM1410kHz	Press: 1>4>1
In Europe:
FM87.50MHz	Press: 8>7>5>0
FM101.90MHz	Press: 1>1>9>0
AM1413kHz	Press: 1>4>1>3

MONO Button

FM MONO Button

The MONO button on the front panel or the FM MONO button on the remote change the FM mode from stereo reception to mono recep- tion. In stereo mode, a stereo signal will be heard if the station is broadcasting a stereo signal and there is sufficient signal strength. An ST indicator will light in the front-panel display. In mono mode, a mono signal will be heard even if the station is broadcasting a stereo signal.

NOTE: Switching to mono mode can improve the reception of weak or distant FM signals. Less signal strength is required for clean mono reception than for stereo reception.

TUNE Button

PRESET Button

P-TUN Button

These remote control buttons are used to change between FREQUENCY tuning mode and PRESET tuning mode. In frequency tuning mode, the TUNING buttons (CH UP/DOWN on the remote ) advance to the next station frequency. In preset tuning mode, the TUN- ING buttons advance to the next memorized station preset.

Select the FREQUENCY tuning mode by press- ing the TUNE button on the remote. Select the PRESET tuning mode by pressing the PRESET button on the remote. Toggle between the two modes by pressing the P-TUN button. A PRE- SET indicator appears in the display when PRESET TUNING is activated.
