Thank you for purchasing the RadioShack Mini Stereo System. Its novel motorized, rotating unit-face makes loading CDs and tapes easy and fun. The 2 × 2-way speaker box gives you high quality sound effects. The stereo not only includes a CD player, tape deck and AM / FM tuner, but also an alarm clock ( 30-key infrared remote control can operate the system from across the room. The tuner features 20-station memory, allowing you to store up to 20 radio stations (10 FM and 10 AM) in memory, so you can quickly turn to a stored station. The tuner also uses PLL (Phase Lock Loop) Digital Automatic Seeking, which searches forward or backward to the next strong station in the selected band so you can quickly find new stations. The CD player has programmable play, so you can play up to 20 tracks in any sequence you choose.
