The portion of the Progress Bar behind the Play Position indicator shows how much you can
rewind in the Instant Replay memory, while the filled portion ahead of the Play Position indica-
tor shows how much you can fast-forward in the memory.
While you are in the playback mode, the radio continues to store the audio from the channel.
Obviously, you will be unable to “catch up” to the live broadcast during playback, as new
audio is being stored at the same rate at which you are playing back the stored audio. You
can use the Fast-Forward button to skip ahead or exit the Instant Replay mode, and begin
listening to the live broadcast again.
Should you press the Play/Pause button to pause the playback, the play position indicator
will stop moving and continue to provide a visual indication of your current position in the
Instant Replay memory.
When paused, and the Instant Replay memory is 10 seconds from becoming full, two beeps
will be heard (if the confirmation tone option is enabled). When the memory is full, the radio
will automatically begin playback, and will continue to store the channel audio, overwriting the
oldest portion of the audio previously stored.
The Instant Replay Time Position provides the exact amount of time the Play Position indicator
is behind the live broadcast, expressed as Hours:Minutes:Seconds, and displayed as a nega-
tive number. (Figure 31)

For example, if -02:40 is displayed, this would indicate that the Play Position indicator is 2
minutes and 40 seconds behind the live broadcast.
