7. Analogue radio: FM/AM (FM/MW)
Analogue radio signal transmission paths, such as FM radio from 87.5-108
MHz, are the ‘classic’ broadcast frequencies, widely used throughout the
world.
Stations are broadcast in analogue (FM= frequency modulation,
MW/AM= amplitude modulation).
With weak or fluctuating signals, the stereo sound fades on VHF radio,
stations are played in mono and the reception is noisy.
Stations can often be received on different frequencies, depending on
the region. Depending on the quality of reception, car radios can
automatically change frequency if the station provides the necessary RDS
information and the transmission signals are of sufficient strength.
Playing FM/AM radio
Use the SRC button or the FM button to select one of the FM1, FM2,
FMT, AM or AMTmemory levels.
Some memory levels are inactive depending on the setting; for
example, only the FM1 memory level is active. For information on
customisation, see section SETTINGS | MENU.
There are 5 presets on each preset memory level.
Station search
The station search can be started by briefly pressing one of the buttons
on the multifunction switch. The search stops automatically at the next
station found.
The search sensitivity can be set in the settings, see section SETTINGS |
MENU
You can also tune into a radio frequency manually if the broadcast signal
from the desired radio station is very weak and the seek fails to stop at
the expected frequency.
Pressing and holding one of the buttons on the multifunction switch will
display MANUAL. The search begins and ends when the button is
released. The frequency can be changed step by step by briefly pressing
the button again.
If no button is pressed for approx. 5 seconds, the unit reverts to
automatic tuning automatic search and the display briefly displays
AUTO.
