many advantages, including:

The radio displays the name of the station in-

stead of its frequency.

tion by continually searching for the best possi-

ble alternate frequency for reception.

required. Long-press the

button to toggle on

or toggle off the AF function. Alternatively, go to

SAM and change the ‘AF’ menu item.
