performs a constant search for frequencies with better reception for the radio
station selected and switches automatically to these frequencies. At certain times
of the day, however, some radio station networks broadcast different programs
to serve a particular region. If the alternate frequency option is activated, this
might mean that the radio automatically switches to a stronger frequency for the
same station which is currently broadcasting a different regional program. If you
want to continue listening to a particular regional program and prevent the radio
from automatically switching to a different frequency, switch the menu item
in the DSC menu to ON. Then the radio will not switch frequencies unless reception deteriorates to the point that it is no longer possible to pick up the frequency
