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
rst 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
