When your vehicle moves from onetransmission area to another with thealternative frequencies tuning switchedon, this function will search for thestrongest station signal.
Under certain conditions, alternativefrequencies tuning may temporarily disruptnormal reception.
When selected, the unit continuallyevaluates signal strength and if a bettersignal becomes available, the unit willswitch to that alternative. It mutes whileit checks a list of alternative frequenciesand if necessary, it will search once acrossthe selected waveband for a genuinealternative frequency.
It will restore radio reception when it findsone or if one is not found, the unit willreturn to the original stored frequency.

Regional Mode
Regional mode controls the behavior ofalternative frequencies switching betweenregionally related networks of a parentbroadcaster. A broadcaster may run a fairlylarge network across a large part of thecountry. At various times of the day thislarge network may be broken down into anumber of smaller regional networks,typically centred on major towns or cities.When the network is not split into regionalvariants, the whole network caries thesame programming.
Regional mode ON: This prevents randomalternative frequency switches whenneighbouring regional networks are notcarrying the same programming.
Regional mode OFF: This allows a largercoverage area if neighbouring regionalnetworks are carrying the sameprogramming, but can cause randomalternative frequency switches if they arenot.
