Manual Tuning; Direct Frequency Entry - Eton Aviator G6 Manual Del Propietário

MANUAL TUNING

Quick, short, sequential presses of the AUTO
or down frequency. Alternately, the TUNING knob can be used.
In Shortwave the tuning knob or manual tuning must be used to tune out
of the broadcast bands.

DIRECT FREQUENCY ENTRY

Turn on the G6. Use this method when the desired frequency of a radio
station is known. AM, LW and SW frequencies are entered in kilohertz (KHz),
e.g. 810 KHz, 162 KHz or 9475 KHz.; FM and Air Band frequencies are
entered in megahertz (MHz), e.g. 102.9 MHz or 124.870 MHz, ignoring the
decimal point.
1. Use the numeric keypad buttons to enter the frequency.
2. Within 3 seconds, press the AM button if it's an MW (AM), LW, SW or AIR
frequency, or the FM button for FM frequencies.
AUTO-SEARCH TUNING
With the G6 on, auto-search tuning starts by pressing either of the AUTO
SEARCH buttons (AUTO ) for about 2 seconds. The G6 has 3 selectable
auto-search modes: STOP, ATS or D-5. The factory programmed default
mode is STOP. These are described below.
STOP: Auto-searching stops on the next encountered station.
D-5: Auto-searching stops for 5 seconds on each encountered station,
then moves on.
ATS: (Auto Tuning Storage): Auto-searching automatically stores the
strongest FM local stations into memories starting with page 99 and
counting downward until all are stored, e.g. 98, 97, 96, etc. Tune to
the FM band and perform auto-search.
