tions within range of your tuner.

ton again.

experiencing poor reception in your
vicinity.
4. Tuning Knob
Manual Channel Selection
Rotate the knob clockwise or counter-
clockwise to manually advance up or
down the frequency range. The tuning
knob also gives you fine-grain control
which you can use to manually fine-tune
your frequency selection. This is useful if
you are searching for a radio signal
which is not strong enough for you to use
the Automatic Channel Selection func-
tion
✽ NOTICE
The speed at which you advance up or
down the frequency range depends on
how fast you turn the knob.
