FM/AM TUNING
You can use the automatic preset tuning method to
automatically store FM stations. This function enables this
unit to automatically tune into FM stations with strong
signals and store up to 40 (8 stations in each of the 5
groups, A1 to E8) of those received stations in order. You
can then easily recall any preset stations by selecting the
preset station numbers where they are stored.
• Any station data stored under a preset station number is cleared
when you store a new station under that preset station number.
• If the number of received stations does not reach 40 (E8),
automatic preset tuning automatically stops once searching all
available stations are tuned into and stored.
• Only FM stations with sufficient signal strength are stored
automatically by automatic preset tuning. If the station you
want to store is weak in signal strength, try using the manual
preset tuning method.
