In order to take maximum advantage of the benefits of AFC, it is suggested that fine tuning be done with the Tuner Selector Switch in the FM position. When the switch is then turned to the FM-AFC position the AFC will improve this careful tuning by a factor of 10 to 1. This procedure is especially recommended when a weak station is being tuned on a channel adjacent to a stronger one. This will prevent the AFC froth reaching for the more powerful signal and skipping over the weaker one. If the weaker station is tuned in without the AFC, when the AFC is applied it will lock it in permanently. Blend Control: This control is used to introduce a controlled amount of crosstalk between the two channels to fill in the hole in the middle found in certain stereo program material. Rotate the BLEND knob clockwise to engage the control. When set to the extreme clockwise position the result will be monophonic. (A + B) Power On/Off Switch: The ON/OFF switch is located in the TREBLE control knob furthest from the panel. To turn the set on, rotate the TREBLE control knob in a clockwise position. AM and FM Tuning Controls: These controls are located on the front panel and are used to tune for AM or FM stations. For simulcast AM-FM stereo reception, it is necessary to tune the AM and FM sections separately.

In

benefits
of
AFC,
it
is
suggested
that

with
the

position
the
AFC
will
improve
this
careful
tuning
by
a

This
procedure
is
especially
recommended
when
a
weak

is
being
tuned
on
a
channel
adjacent
to
a
stronger
one.
This
will
prevent
the
AFC
froth
reaching
for
the
more
powerful
signal
and
skipping
over
the
weaker
one.
If
the
weaker
station
is
tuned
in
without
the
AFC,
when
the
AFC
is
applied
it
will
lock
it
in
permanently.
Blend
Control:
This
control
is

channels
to
fi

in
the
hole
in
the
middle
found
in
certain
stereo
program
material.
Rotate
the
