Operation Manual
CHOOSING TUNER MODE
The front-panel [TUNER MODE] button is a dual-purpose control. In the
normal position (“FM Mute On” is briey displayed in the lower line of the VFD;
“FM STEREO” and “FM MUTE” icons on the VFD are lit), only the stations with a
strong signal can be listened to, and the noise between stations is muted.
Pressing the [TUNER MODE] button again (“FM Mute O” is briey displayed
in the lower line of the VFD; “FM STEREO” and “FM MUTE” icons on the
VFD are extinguished) allows distant and potentially noisy stations to be
received. Noise is reduced if the FM station signal level is less than the FM
Stereo threshold (since mono FM is inherently less noise-prone) though at
the sacrice of the stereo eect.
NOTE
One can store the same channel in two preset locations - one with “FM
Mute O” and another with “FM Mute On”.
ABOUT USER NAMES
You can assign a twelve character “User Name” to each radio preset, which
will show in the front-panel readout whenever that preset is recalled.
ENTERING USER NAMES
To name a radio preset “NEWS,” follow the procedure as below.
1 Recall the desired radio preset.
2 Then, press the [MEMORY] button once and then within ve (5)
seconds, press the [INFO] button - the readout shows a blinking box.
3 Use the [PRESET ] buttons to select the rst character of the name
(“N” from the alphabetical list).
4 Press [TUNE ] button to select the character and correspondingly
move forward to the next position (Press [TUNE ] to go back to the
previous character). Repeat this process for each character in sequence.
5 Press the [MEMORY] key again to store the User Name and exit the text-
entry mode.
ABOUT RDS
The Radio Data System (RDS) permits sending small amounts of digital
information using conventional FM radio broadcasts. The C 725BEE
supports two RDS modes, station-name (PS mode) and radio-text (RT
mode). Not every FM station incorporates RDS in its broadcast signal. In
most areas you will nd from one to several RDS-enabled stations, but it is
by no means impossible that your favorite stations will not be broadcasting
RDS data.
VIEW RDS TEXT
When an RDS-enabled FM broadcast is tuned, after a brief delay the lower
line of the VFD will show its station-name (PS) text: “ROCK101,”for example.
Toggle the front-panel [INFO] key to scroll among other MODE settings
the station’s radio-text (RT) readout, if any, which might scroll song or artist
name or any other text of the station’s choosing.
