RADIO Using The Main Unit
Best Station Memory
While in FM 1if you press the FAST FWD button the radio will start scanning from
low to high frequencies. Each strong station found will be stored in a preset button ~
until all 27 FM presets are full. You can also do this with the AM band. There are 18
presets available for the AM band.
While in FM1 if you press the FAST RWD button the radio will scan frequencies
from high to low and store stations until all available presets are full. This will also
work on the AM band.
Weather Band Reception
Press the BAND button to select the Weather Band.
Once the unit is set on the Weather Band function, it will automatically search for an
available station among the 7 preset US Weather Bureau frequencies. When the
signal is not strong enough to receive the last weather band station, the unit will
continue to search for another weather band station. The user can also manually
select a weather band station by pressing any of the 1-7 preset number frequen-
cies.
Note: Since the broadcasts are local weather and information, the transmission power is
usually very low (much less than AM or FM stations) so you will usually receive only
one station unless you are on the edge of two or more broadcast signals. The most
you will receive is two or three and that is rare.Depending on where you are
located, there is a possibility you will receive only a very weak signal or none at all.
Also, similar to AM and FM signals, Weather Band signals are subject to surround-
ing conditions, weather, obstructions of the signal by hills or mountains, etc ..
