telephone systems.  A built-in monitor speaker, tuning dial, LED signal strength indicator, and automatic frequency control provides ease of station 
tuning, while minimizing signal drift.  In addition to a built-in telescoping and fully pivoting FM antenna, a separate FM dipole antenna is provided, as well 
as terminals to connect an external FM antenna.  Selector switches allow selection of : AM-FM bands; internal-external antenna; speaker on-off; and 
power on-off.  A tone control to adjust bass and treble response, is also provided.  Barriered screw terminals are provided for ease and reliability of 
installation.  The tuner can be powered by 12VDC or 24VDC, and is designed for surface wall mounting.
