Storing FM Stations
Automatically in Alphabetical
Order (“Auto-betical”)
With “Auto-betical select” you can automatically store
up to 30 FM and FM RDS stations in alphabetical order
without redundancy. Additionally, “Auto-betical
select” only stores the stations with the clearest signals.
If you want to store FM or AM (MW) stations one by
one, see “Presetting Radio Stations” on page 14.
FM RDS stations are stored first, in alphabetical order
by their Station Name, followed by regular FM stations
in order of frequency. (For more details on RDS, see
