Listening to a stereo radio station (FM mode)
When you tune into a radio station, TUNED
indicator appears in the display. If you tune into
an FM station in stereo, then “FM STEREO”
appears. If the signal is weak, it may be
impossible to tune into the station in stereo. In
such a case, press the FM MODE button on the
front panel. The AUTO indication disappears
and the radio station is output in the monaural
mode. To return to stereo, press the FM MODE
button again. “AUTO” appears. Some inter-
station noise may be heard, but the sound will
not cut in and out as it would if stereo was
selected.
Listening to Radio Broadcasts
One of the features of the TX-NR900/900E that is most frequently
used is its ability to play FM and AM broadcast radio stations. The
TX-NR900/900E provides a number of listening modes perfect for
listening to the radio and getting the most out of your audio system.
Also, by presetting radio stations that you listen to frequently, you
can select them easily by pressing the CH
button on the remote
controller.
Tuning into a radio station
1. Press the TUNER input source button.
Each time you press the TUNER button, the
input source changes between AM and FM.
2. Using the TUNING and buttons
on the front panel, tune into the
station you desire.
• The tuner frequency changes in 100-kHz (50-kHz)
increments for FM and 10-kHz (or 9-kHz) increments for
AM.
• You can press the TUNING or button continuously for
more than 0.5 seconds to scan for an FM station in the
direction of the button you pressed (FM auto tuning mode).
After you release the button and a station is received in stereo,
the scanning stops.
• The European model allows you to receive RDS broadcasts.
See pages 38 and 39 for a more information regarding turning
into RDS broadcasts.
