Introduction:
The tuner can be set to any of three different
reception modes (ReCeiVeMode = RCVM).
Reception mode Screen display:
normal STEREO RCVM NORM
normal STEREO
with aerial attenuator
RCVM ATT
MONO RCVM MONO
The standard tuner setting is STEREO
(RCVM NORM). In this mode the tuner
suppresses interference from adjacent stati-
ons, providing outstandingly good reproduc-
tion quality even under difficult reception
conditions.
If you try to receive stations close to an unu-
sually powerful local station you may en-
counter intermodulation effects (whistling
and twittering "birdie" noises).
In this type of case we recommend that you
switch on the aerial attenuator; the message
'RCVM ATT' then appears on the screen.
Very weak or very distant stations can usu-
ally only be picked up with serious back-
ground hiss, and in this case you should
switch to MONO reception, as this reduces
the hiss significantly.
Selecting the reception mode 'RCVM
MONO' automatically reduces the search
threshold. The automatic station search func-
tion now also stops at distant, weak and
slightly "hissy" stations.
Operation:
To change the reception mode press the re-
mote control buttons in the sequence shown
above.
Pressing the remote control buttons     and
    changes the current reception mode, and
the new mode then appears on the screen.
Any change you make takes effect immedia-
tely. The function is terminated by pressing
the
    button.
If none of the menu control buttons
(
   ,     /     or    ) are pressed
for a period of about ten seconds, the unit
interrupts the special functions menu and
reverts to the standard display. (time-out).
