Listening to FM/AM Radio Stations
One of the features of the TX-DS787 that is most frequently used
is its ability to play FM and AM broadcast radio stations. The TX-
DS787 provides a number of listening modes perfect for listening
to the radio and getting the most out of your audio system. Also, by
presetting radio stations that you listen to frequently, you can
select them easily by pressing the CH
button on the remote
controller.
Tuning into a radio station
1. Press either the AM or FM input source button.
2. Using the TUNING UP and DOWN buttons on
the front panel, tune into the station you
desire.
When you tune into a radio station, TUNED indicator appears
in the display. If you tune into an FM station in stereo, then
“FM STEREO” appears. If the signal is weak, it may be
impossible to tune into the station in stereo. In such a case,
press the FM MUTE/MODE button on the front panel. The
AUTO indication disappears and the radio station is output in
the monaural mode. To return to stereo, press the FM MUTE/
MODE button again. “AUTO” appears. Some inter-station
noise may be heard, but the sound will not cut in and out as it
would if stereo was selected.
• The tuner frequency changes in 50 kHz increments for FM
and 10 kHz (or 9kHz) increments for AM.
• When tuning into FM stations, you can press the TUNING
UP or DOWN button continuously for more than 0.5
seconds to scan for an FM station in the direction of the
button you pressed (FM auto tuning mode). After you
release the button and a station is received in stereo, the
scanning stops.
• The European model allows you to receive RDS
broadcasts. See below for a more detailed explanation.
