Station frequency  
Talk radio broadcasts can be greatly affected by either the  
microphone selection or the boosting of low frequencies  
by some radio stations. They do so in an attempt to  
improve speech when heard through conventional radios.  
In high-quality audio products, this results in sound that is  
unnatural or bass heavy. By selecting the TALK RADIO  
mode, your Wave® radio III automatically adjusts to  
compensate for artificially boosted low frequencies.  
Tuning to an FM/AM station

LISTENING TO RADIO  
Press, or press and hold Seek/Track  
or to browse forward or back through  
digital stations.  
Listening to DIGITAL RADIO  
The Wave® radio III incudes the ability to receive Band  
III digital radio broadcasts, a technology that supports a  
cleaner reproduction of broadcast audio, decreasing  
certain audio noise sometimes heard on analog radios.  
You will continue to hear the current digital radio station  
while tuning. If you release the Seek/Track button for  
more than one second, the radio will tune to the  
displayed station.  
In addition to music and speech, digital audio  
transmissions contain program information. This could  
be a plot summary to a play, the name of the track  
currently being played, E-mail addresses, up to the  
minute sports results, or competition details.  
To return to the previously tuned station,  
press either Tune/Playlist < or >.  
Storing digital radio station presets  
When DIGITAL RADIO is selected, information about the  
current station is displayed that is similar to the following  
example:

Primary stations and secondary  
services  
Primary digital radio stations and secondary services are  
tuned in the same manner. The difference between them  
is in how they are broadcast.  
Note: The very first time you select DIGITAL RADIO,  
“PLEASE WAIT SCANNING” is displayed for a few minutes  
while the system scans for available digital radio stations.  
Primary digital radio stations are similar to FM  
broadcasts in that they generally broadcast the same  
number of hours as FM. If a primary digital radio station  
goes off-air while you are listening, or if signal strength  
drops to zero, “UNAVAILABLE” is displayed.  
tions in your area you may need to install the external  
antenna included with your system. See “Installing an  
external antenna for DIGITAL RADIO” on page 16.  
Secondary services are digital broadcasts that are  
associated with a primary digital radio station. A  
secondary service may only broadcast periodically and  
may broadcast different program material than the  
primary digital radio station.  
Tuning to a digital radio station  
The digital radio tunes to stations alphabetically by  
station name. Primary station names appear in  
alphabetical order with secondary station names appearing  
after the primary station name.  
If a secondary service goes off-air while you are  
listening, or if the signal strength drops to zero, “OFF  
AIR” is displayed for two seconds. Then, the digital radio  
tunes to the associated primary digital radio station.  
Press Seek/Track
