Listening to Radio Broadcasts
One of the features of the TX-NR1000/TX-NR5000E that
is most frequently used is its ability to play FM and AM
broadcast radio stations. The TX-NR1000/TX-NR5000E
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/DISC +/–] button on the remote controller.
Setting the AM Tuning Interval
For the Asian or Australian models, you have to adjust the
“AM Frequency Step” setting according to your area.
Use the Setup menu to adjust the “AM Frequency Step”
setting.
To perform this setting, go to “Hardware Setup”
→ “AM
Frequency Setup”
→
“Frequency Step,” and select “9 kHz”
or “10 kHz.” For details on this setting, see page 87.
Tuning into a Radio Station Automatically

When the FM stereo broadcast contains much noise:
Press the [TUNING MODE] button to switch to the
manual tuning mode. The “AUTO” indication disappears
and the tuner turns into the monaural mode. In the
monaural mode, the noise will be reduced and the
broadcast be easier to hear.

• The tuner frequency changes in 200 kHz (50 kHz)
increments for FM and 10 kHz (or 9 kHz) increments

station in stereo, press the [TUNING MODE] button.
