ALPHANUMERIC
This is the default setting. Stations are arranged by numbers rst and then
alphabetically by letters.
ACTIVE
Active stations are listed at the top of the broadcast list. DAB broadcasts
that are in the list but have no service in the area will be displayed last in
the broadcast list.
ENSEMBLE
Digital radio is broadcast as groups of data called ensemble. Each ensemble
contains a number of stations, transmitted at a set frequency. When
“Ensemble” is selected as the mode of station order, the radio stations are
arranged in the order of their ensemble names.
NOTE
Ensemble is also interchangeably termed as “multiplex” by other
broadcast providers.
FAVOURITES
The VISO THREE memorizes the top ten stations you listen as you tune in
stations. They will be listed at the top of the broadcast list.
DYNAMIC RANGE
The level of compression of stations can be set to eliminate the dierences
in dynamic range or sound level between DAB broadcasts. Popular music
would normally be more compressed than classical music, resulting in
possible dierent audio levels when changing from one station to the
other. Setting the Dynamic Range to “D-range 0” means no compression,
“D-range 1/2” indicates medium compression and “D-range 1” shows
maximum compression. No compression is recommended, especially for
classical music.
1 While listening to a DAB broadcast, press [TUNER MODE] button and
then [ ] to select “Dynamic range”. Press [ENTER].

reception of the desired DAB broadcast.
