Kenwood KRC-279RA - Manual (Page 22)

You can automatically store all the receivable frequencies in
the band currently being listened to, and then recall them with
the touch of a button later. This function is especially useful
when you are travelling and do not know what stations are
available. Up to 6 frequencies can be stored this way.
Display and setting:
Select the display "A-MEMORY" during the selecting function in
the menu system.
Hold down either the 4 or ¢ button for two seconds or
more to start auto memory function.
The numbers of the preset station buttons showed in order.
When all the stations in a certain band are stored in the preset
memory, the auto memory entry stops. The tuner then plays
the last station received.
• When the AF function is turned on whilst auto memory entry
takes place, only RDS stations (i.e., stations with RDS capability)
are stored. RDS stations that have been preset for FM1 cannot
also be preset in FM2 or FM3.
• When the local seek function is turned whilst auto memory
entry takes place, stations with poor reception are not stored.
• When the Traffic Information function is on , only the local traffic
information station frequency will be stored.

Local Seek Function
You can arrange to have news bulletins interrupt your current
listening source, including other radio stations. When the News
Bulletin function is on, the PTY News Timeout setting allows
you to set the interval during which further news interruption
cannot take place. You can adjust the PTY news interruption
period from 10 to 90 minutes for each journey.
Display and setting:
"NEWS OFF/ 00M/ 10M/ 20M/ 30M/ 40M/ 50M/ 60M/ 70M/
80M/ 90M"
(M= minutes)
: When you select the news interruption timeout interval, the
News function turns on and the NEWS indicator lights up.
When a news bulletin is received, "NEWS" will be displayed
and reception will begin at the preset volume.
• If you choose the "20M" setting, further news bulletins will not
be received for 20 minutes once the first news bulletin is
received.
• This function is only available if the desired station sends PTY-
code for news bulletin or belongs to Network>-Network sending PTY-code for news bulletin.
• If you turn on the news bulletin function in the MW/LW band,
the band is switched automatically to the FM band.
However, the MW/LW band is not returned to when you turn off
the function.
