In

order

to

take

full

advantage

of

the

benefits

of

AFC;

it

is

suggested

that

fine

tuning

be

done

with

the

AFC

switch

"OFF".

When

the

station

is

aurally

tuned

in,

throw

the

AFC

switch

"ON"

and

the

AFC

circuit

will

retune

your

careful

tuning

by

a

tuning

factor

of

10:1.

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

from

reaching

for

the

more

powerful

signal

thereby

skipping

over

the

weaker

one.

Whenever

a

weak

station

is

being

tuned.

the

AFC

should

be

defeated.

Mode

Switch:

The

MODE

switch

selected

between

AM/FM

and

FM/Multiplex.

It

operates

in

conjunction

with

the

SELECTOR

switch

located

directly

next

to

it.

When

playing

either

AM

or

FM,

place

the

MODE

switch

in

the

"AM/FM"

position.

When

playing

multiplex

place

the

MODE

switch

in

the

"FM/MX"

position.

Selector

Switch:

The

SELECTOR

switch

chooses

between

AM

and

FM

reception

and

must

be

operated

in

conjunction

with

the

MODE

switch.

For

example,

if

you

wish

to

listen

to

an

FM

broadcast,

throw

the

MODE

switch

to

AM/FM

and

the

SELECTOR

switch

to

FM.

To

listen

to

AM,

allow

the

MODE

switch

to

remain

in

AM/FM

and

throw

the

SELECTOR

switch

to

AM.

For

FM

Multiplex

operation,

the

MODE

switch

must

be

in

the

FM/MX

position

and

the

SELEC-

TOR

switch

in

FM.

Multiplex

Noise

Filter:

When

any

FM

tuner

is

operated

stereophonically

using

the

FCC

approved

multiplex

system,

the

signal

required

to

obtain

noise

-free

stereophonic

FM

reception

must

be

greater

than

for

normal

monophonic

reception.

If

noise

is

present

in

your

system

when

listening

to

.

a

multiplex

broadcast,

merely

throw

in

the

MULTIPLEX

NOISE

FILTER

located

to

the

right

of

the

tuning

control.

If

noise

persists,

then

an

external

FM

antenna

may

be

required.

ADDITIONAL

INFORMATION

Fuse:

The

T300X

is

protected

by

a

2

Amp-3AG

fuse.

In

the

event

the

fuse

blows

out,

replace

with

only

the

same

type

used.

Replacing

with

a

fuse

of

a

higher

rating

will

not

protect

the

tuner

and

will

automatically

void

the

warranty.

Hum:

In

some

installations,

hum

may

be

encountered

due

to

a

voltage

difference

between

the

amplifier,

tuner

and

record

changer

chassis.

This

may

be

eliminated

by

reversing

one

or

all

of

the

AC

power

plugs.

Simply

reverse

one

at

a

time

until

improvement

is

experienced.

Routine

Maintenance:

Due

to

the

conservative

design

of

the

T300X,

no

routine

maintenance

other

than

yearly

tube

checking

is

required.

Repair:

Only

the

most

qualified

service

technician

should

be

employed,

as

special

equipment

and

training

is

required

to

properly

service

a

high

fi

delity

instrument.

This

manual

contains

information

of

great

value

to
