tion.

BROADCAST BAND TUNING STEP SIZE
In the AM broadcast band, the SATELLIT 800
MILLENNIUM receiver increments the frequency in

10 kHz steps when pressing the

and

buttons.

The 10 kHz step size is practical for tuning the U.S. and
Canadian broadcast bands. However, the step size can
be changed to 9 kHz to permit practical tuning of Euro-
pean broadcast stations. The tuning step size is held in
nonvolatile memory and thus is not lost during power
failure or battery changing. To select the alternate step
size:

With POWER OFF Press and hold the

button

while pressing the

button to put the SATELLIT 800

MILLENNIUM receiver in the POWER 'ON' mode.

If the step size was 10 kHz prior to performing the above
procedure, then the 9 kHz step size for the broadcast band is
now programmed. To change back to 10 kHz, repeat the
same procedure.

DELETE ALL MEMORY CHANNELS

If it is desired to delete all programmed memory channels,
perform the following procedure:

With POWER OFF, Press and bold the

button

while pressing the

button to put the SATELLIT 800

MILLENNIUM receiver in the POWER 'ON' mode.

Hold the

button until a confirmation beep is heard

to indicate that ALL memory locations have been cleared.

AUTOMATIC BANDWIDTH SETTING WITH MODE
SELECTION DISABLE (ENABLE)
The SATELLIT 800 MILLENNIUM receiver permits automatic
setting of the bandwidth appropriate for each mode of
detection. For example, 6.0 kHz bandwidth would be
selected automatically for AM mode operation, and 2.3 kHz
bandwidth would be selected for SSB mode. Of course,
pressing the 'BANDWIDTH' button temporarily overrides the
automatic setting until a mode change is made. The setting,
automatic or manual bandwidth selection with mode, is held
in nonvolatile memory and is not lost during power loss or
during battery changing. To disable the automatic bandwidth
with mode;

With POWER OFF, Press and hold the 'BANDWIDTH'

button while pressing the

button to put the receiver in

the POWER 'ON' mode.

To enable 'Automatic Bandwidth Selection with Mode'
operation, repeat the same procedure.
