Sony icf 2010 - Memory Tuning; How to Memorize a Station

MEMORY TUNING
BROADCAST BANDS
You can designate a broadcast band to be scanned from the follow¬
ing, by pressing the SHiFT key and the corresponding MEMORY
PRESET key.
Once the frequencies of the stations are memorized, ali you have to
do is to push a key.
Up to 32 stations can be memorized to the a-1 to d-8 MEMORY
PRESET keys. AM mode can aiso be memorized.

• The frequency ranges of the SW meter bands to be scanned are
somewhat wider than those indicated on the front panel of the
receiver.
• The frequencies between two SW meter bands can be scanned
with the DEFINE scan at a 5 kHz scanning intervai.
To check the frequency range to be scanned
Keeping the SHIFT key pressed, press the L1 (a-1) key or the L2(a-2)
key. The lower limit frequency or the upper limit frequency appears
on the frequency display.
• The selected scanning range is memorized even after the receiver
is once turned off or the station beyond the range is tuned in.
Notes
• Since scanning stops with a stronger signal than the preset level,
it may stops a little before or after the exact frequency of a station.
If this happens, tune in the station precisely with the MANUAL
TUNING knob.
• When scanning does not stop at all during AM (LW, MW or SW)
reception, make sure the AM RF GAIN control (right side) is set to
MAX and the AM ATT selector (left side) is set to DX.
• When scanning stops at a noise or many unwanted stations dur¬
ing AM reception, slide the AM RF GAIN control slightly toward
MIN. Then, set the AM ATT selector to LOCAL.
• AM mode, scanning range setting, scan mode and MW scanning
interval cannot be changed during scanning.
HOW TO MEMORIZE A STATION
The numbers in the illustration refer to the sequence of operations.
1 Set the MAIN POWER switch and the POWER switch to ON.
2 Tune in the desired station using any tuning method—direct tun¬
ing (page 10), manual tuning (page 11) or scan tuning (page 13),
and set AM mode appropriately when receiving AM stations.
3 Keeping the ENTER key pressed, press one of the MEMORY
PRESET keys.

Repeat steps 2 and 3 for each MEMORY PRESET key.
• If you memorize another station to a key to which you have
already memorized a station, the previous station will be erased.
You cannot erase a station without memorizing another station.
• AM 150 kHz are memorized to all the keys at the factory.
Note
After replacing the computer/clock batteries, be sure to memorize
the stations again. The memory contents will be erased when the
batteries are removed.
