...... ...... About Station Presets The Solo has 20 station presets. The presets can be used to store either AM or FM stations. Because of the way the Solo places stations in the presets you may want to plan how you store them. Here’s how it works. The first station you store goes into Preset 1. The second station goes into Preset 2 and so on, up to 20 stations. If you remove a preset all the stations in presets above the one you removed, drop down a preset position. The table below gives an example. Preset # 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 originally programmed stations FM 89.7 FM 90.9 FM 100.3 FM 104.9 AM 680 AM 850 AM 1030 after removing presets 2 and 6 FM 89.7 FM 100.3 FM 104.9 AM 680 AM 1030 It may be helpful to put the presets in some logical order. You could put the FM presets in order of ascending frequency. For example put 89.7 into Preset 1, 90.9 into Preset 2, 93.7 into Preset 3, etc. Or you could assign presets on the basis of how often you listen to them. For example, your favorite station could go into Preset 1, the next favorite into preset 2, etc. Turn the MODe control to select Preset. Turn the tune control to select the preset station you want. The Preset indicator, the preset number and the station frequency will light. Tuning in a Preset Station 12 In this example AM preset 5, with station frequency 1050 assigned to it, has been selected. .... Removing One or More Presets To remove one preset – Tune in the preset station as described above. Press and hold the tune control. When the Preset has been cleared the station frequency, “radio” and the AM/FM band indicator are replaced with “_ _ _ _” . Note: You must tune in the preset you want to delete with the Preset source. If you tune in a radio station that has been placed in a preset using the AM or FM source, you will see the Preset indicator and number in the display, but you will not be able to delete the preset. To clear all the presets – Using the Preset source, tune in any preset station. Then press and hold the tune control for 10 seconds. You’ll hear 3 beeps indicating the presets have been cleared.
