set the pre-set memories of that band to your favorite stations, activating the Auto-Store Tuning feature will erase those stations and enter
the new strong stations. If the radio is in the distant (Dx) mode, weaker,
more distant stations will be preset into each band. This feature is most

reception mode, select a reasonably strong FM stereo station so that
the indication returns.
