Indexing Preset Stations
You might find that too many preset stations make it hard to find the one you want to listen to.
This receiver includes a feature that lets you group preset stations and give each group a name
(station index). For example, you can group all the Jazz stations and label them "JAZZ." The
next time you select "JAZZ," you can scan all the stations labeled "JAZZ."
Creating an Index Name for a Preset Station
You can create an index name (station index) using up to five
letters and symbols each.
