Kenwood KT-8300 - Manual (Page 8)

CONTROLS AND THEIR FUNCTIONS
© POWER SWITCH
Move up to ON to power the set, down to turn it OFF.
The dial indicator lights when the power is on.
@ OUTPUT LEVEL CONTROL
The signals passing from the OUTPUT (VARIABLE) terminals can be
controlled by the OUTPUT LEVEL knob. Use the controls in the
following situations;
1) When the KT-8300 is connected to a stereo amplifier and the
output level is too high for the input terminals, or too low.
2) When the tuner output level does not match that of other units
(turntable, tape deck, etc.) connected to the amplifier. When
there is a difference in output levels between AM performance
and FM performance.
® MUTING SWITCH
This switch silences interstation noise on the FM band.
The switch positions and functions are as follows:
1: Use this setting when the (2) setting cancels the desired station
along with the noise.
2: To tune in a strong signal station.
Note: When tuning to a weak signal station, turn the MUTING switch off. This will not
affect the noise, etc., but such interference usually disappears when you are near or
right on the station at any rate.
© TUNING KNOB
Use the tuning knob to select the AM and FM station desired.
Adjust further by tuning for maximum deflection of the SIGNAL
meter while listening to the speaker output.
® IF BAND SELECTOR
Switch positions and functions are as follows:
WIDE — This setting is suitable for normal usage in an area where no
radio interference occurs. Reception with a low distortion can be ex­
pected.
NARROW —This switch is depressed if radio interference with an ad­
jacent station is rigorous.
