Information

You may search for a specific Program
Type (PTY) by following these steps:

1. Press the 

button 

˙

and note

that the Information Display will show

SEL PTY

.

2. After three seconds, the display will show
the last PTY in use. If you wish to use the
same PTY, press the 

button 

˙

again within six seconds, and the tuner will
begin to search for the first station with the
matching PTY and acceptable signal
strength.

3. To search for a different PTY, press the

buttons 

π &

while

the last PTY in use is still displayed to scroll
through the list of available PTY types. To
search for the next available station with
any RDS data, select

PTY type.

4. When the PTY is selected, press the 

button 

˙

Information Display. The HK3270 RDS will
go into an automatic search mode and
attempt to find the next station with
acceptable signal strength that matches the
desired PTY type. Press the 

button 

˙

twice again to find another

matching station. When a station is tuned,
the search will stop and the Information
Display will show the station’s “Call
Letters” or other “Program Service”
identification.

5. The tuner will make one complete scan
of the entire FM band for stations that
match the desired PTY type and have
acceptable reception quality. If no such
station is found, the word 

NONE

will

appear briefly in the Information Display,
and the tuner will return to the last FM
station in use before the search.

In normal operation, the source selected for
listening through the HK3270 RDS is sent to
the Tape Mon Rec Out and Tape 2 Rec Out
outputs. This means that any program you
are listening to may be recorded simply by
placing machines connected to the outputs
for 

‚

or 

¤

in the

record mode.

When a tape recorder with separate record
and playback heads is used, you may
monitor the output of the recording by
selecting the 

!

or 

ç

.

Note that the previous source remains
selected as recording source and a red LED
will illuminate in the front panel above the

!

to remind you that you are

listening to the record playback instead of
the actual input source being recorded.

Note that changing the Bass, Treble or
Balance control will not affect the
recordings, only the preamp and speaker
outputs.
