Key Selling Feature - Quartz frequency Synthesis
Of all the tuning systems available today, none is more convenient, none more precise, none offers greater freedom from drift and distortion than the system used in the ST-JX310 - Quartz frequency synthesis. Radio stations use a quartz crystal to maintain their location on the dial. in the same way, the ST-JX310 uses quartz to tune stations in with the utmost precision. it's easy, straightforward, and accurate every time.

Key Demonstration
Explain that the tuner uses a microprocessor to synthesize each station frequency, and uses quartz precision to lock onto that frequency. There is no drift or fade, Demonstrate operation by asking the customer for his or her favourite station. Tune the station manually, then enter it into one of the tuner's memory presets. Tune in another station, then retrieve the station just preset. Point out that, once memorized, any station can be recalled at any time with a touch of a button.

Convenience Features
Microprocessor tuning with manual "step" tuning up and down the dial
Five AM and five FM station memory presets for instant recail at the touch of a button
Liquid crystal display includes preset number, station frequency, tuned status, muting status
Switchable muting between FM stations eliminates raucous inter-station noise.
