Notes

●If no station is found by this function after searching through all preset stations, “NO PS” flashes for about 3 seconds on the display, and then it returns to the mode which had been obtained before the searching was performed.

●This function is useful especially for calling a station with weak signals which cannot be received by the automatic tuning method. By only storing such a station, you can call it any time easily.
