The Submenu commands in the Play Information screen for the Preset radio stations:

Playback: Provides the same playback control functions as available on the remote control. Group selection (–/+) and skip backward and forward (b/a) buttons can be used to switch radio stations registered in the Presets list (as explained in the following column). On-screen buttons shown in gray provide no function for the currently selected radio station; the same buttons on the remote control don’t work either.

Broadcast: Streams a radio program currently being received on the MCX-2000 to MusicCAST clients specified in a dialog box (page 89).

Recall Play: Makes the MCX-2000 start ‘continued’ playback of a song currently playing on a client specified in a dialog box (page 90).

Getting the most out of the Presets List

Since the MCX-2000 remembers which radio station is last played (selected) at multiple levels—for each group, and for the entire Presets list, you can quickly access radio stations you frequently listen to.

					: Radio station last selected in the group

If you use groups (at least) to categorize radio stations with a specific theme (such as genre), you can conveniently switch themes using the group selection buttons (+/–) while selecting radio stations categorized with each theme using the skip backward and forward buttons (b/a).
