Changing the sampling time
(Scan)
The sampling time can be selected between
5 and 30 seconds.
If you wish to change the duration of the
sampling time, refer to “Programming with
DSC – SCANTIME“.
Changing the sensitivity of the
seek run
You can change the sensitivity of the auto-
matic seek run.
If “lo” is displayed, seek only recognizes sta-
tions with good reception (low sensitivity).
If “lo” is not displayed, seek also recognizes
stations with poorer reception.
To adjust the sensitivity, refer to “Program-
ming with DSC – FM/AM Sens”.
Toggling between stereo and
mono (FM)
You can toggle between stereo and mono
in the DSC menu. This can be useful in are-
as where reception is critical. When the unit
is switched on, stereo is selected automati-
cally.
