Station order Description
Manual Tune
Choose the Manual Tune option from the
DAB Mode menu.
The Manual Tune selection screen allows
you to select a particular frequency to
tune to. The list of frequencies displayed is
dependant on the currently-set frequency
band and contains all of the frequencies
within that band. It starts with the short
name of the frequency, for example 12B,
and is followed by the actual frequency in
MHz.
If there is a station corresponding to this
station number and frequency, the display
will show the name, frequency, and a
tuning meter will show the signal strength.
DRC - Dynamic Range Control
Pico RS includes a dynamic range control
that automatically boosts the volume of
quieter sounds for listening in noisy
environments.
The DRC control is found in the DAB
Mode menu under ‘DRC’. There are three
pre-defined settings as follows:
Local and Full Scan
As time passes, new stations will become
available in your area. To find them and
add them to your station list it is
necessary to perform either a ‘Local’ or
‘Full’ scan. Both operations can be
accessed via the DAB Mode menu.
A Local Scan performs a shorter scan of
only the ‘local’ ensemble range.
A Full Scan will take longer, but will cover
the complete DAB ensemble range.
Favourite Station Presets
Pico allows you to store 12 favourite
station presets, either via the
PRESET
button on Pico itself, or via the
optional Pico remote control.
To save the station you are currently
listening to as a preset, simply press the
PRESET button then use the scroll wheel to
find an unused location. Now press the
scroll wheel to store.
To listen to a stored station press the
PRESET button then use the scroll wheel to
locate your desired preset, then press to
select.
