Receiving Broadcasts Receiving Broadcasts Before receiving broadcasts, make sure you have connected FM and AM antennas to the receiver (page 7). Direct tuning You can enter a frequency of the station you want directly by using the numeric buttons on the supplied remote. For details on the buttons used in this section, see pages 37 - 43 for remote RM-PP411 and pages 44 - 47 for remote RM-U306. 1 Press TUNER on the remote. The last received station is tuned in. 2 Press FM or AM to select the FM or AM band. 3 Press D. TUNING on the remote. 4 Press the numeric buttons to enter the frequency. Example 1: FM 102.50 MHz 1 b0 b2 b5b 0 Example 2: AM 1350 kHz (You don't have to enter the last "0" when the tuning scale is set to 10 kHz.) 1 b3 b5 b0 If you cannot tune in a station and the entered numbers flash Make sure you've entered the right frequency. If not, repeat steps 3 and 4. If the entered numbers still flash, the frequency is not used in your area. 5 If you've tuned in an AM station, adjust the direction of the AM loop antenna for optimum reception. 6 Repeat steps 2 to 5 to receive another station. Tips • If you do not remember the precise frequency, press TUNING + or TUNING - after entering the value close to the frequency you want. The receiver automatically tunes in the station you want. If the frequency seems to be higher than the entered value, press TUNING +, and if the frequency seems to be lower than the entered value, press TUNING -. • If "STEREO" flashes in the display and the FM stereo reception is poor, press FM MODE to change to monaural (MONO). You will not be able to enjoy the stereo effect, but the sound will be less distorted. To return to stereo mode, press FM MODE again. The tuning scale is: FM : 100 kHz AM : 10 kHz* * The AM tuning scale can be changed (page 52). 31US
