2
Tune in to the desired station.
For tuning methods, see “Various ways of reception”, pages 16 to
29.
3
Press SYNC repeatedly to select the synchronous
detection mode with better reception (SYNC U or
SYNC L).
Each time SYNC is pressed, the display
changes as follows:
“LOCK” appears in the display when
synchronous detection is in effect.
Tip
For more on synchronous detection, see “Tips on radio waves”, page 50.
Notes
• Synchronous detection may be cancelled when the batteries become
weak.
• Even when you have chosen either of the synchronous detection
modes and SYNC U or SYNC L is lit in the display, synchronous
detection may not take effect if reception is weak. In this case, “LOCK”
will not light up.
• Synchronous detection setting cannot be preset to memory.
• If a preset AM frequency is recalled when either synchronous detection
mode is in effect, the mode setting remains active and the frequency is
received in the respective mode.
