Storing FM stations automatically

— AUTOBETICAL

This function lets you store up to 30 FM and FM RDS stations in alphabetical order without redundancy. Additionally, it only stores the stations with the clearest signals.

If you want to store FM or AM stations one by one, see “Storing stations manually” on page 12.

Depending on the number of stations in your area, it may take longer than 5 minutes until storing is complete. “AUTO-BETICAL” appears in the display and the tuner scans and stores all the FM and FM RDS stations in the broadcast area. For RDS stations, the tuner first checks for stations broadcasting the same program, then stores only the one with the clearest signal. The selected RDS stations are sorted alphabetically by their Program Service name, then assigned a 2-character preset code. For more details on RDS, see “Using the Radio Data System (RDS)” on page 14. Regular FM stations are assigned

2-character preset codes and stored after the RDS stations.

8 When done, “End” appears in the display momentarily and the tuner returns to normal operation.

Turn TUNING/SELECT to select a service.
