    The NuVo Dual AM/FM/Weather Tuner offers a wide variety of controls. Preset 10 stations in each of 10 station banks, and then group them according to specific genres. You can scan each of your preset stations, seek up and down the frequency bands to find clear stations or tune up and down the bands to search for specific stations. Tuning can also be done via the numeric buttons on the front panel. You can even scan within your programmed genre categories.

    The vivid two-line display indicates the band AM, FM, or WX (Weatherband) and station frequency, along with customized preset information, or RDS (Radio Data Service) information. Broadcasters can use the RDS format to send artist and song information with their broadcast. If a station is broadcasting RDS, the Dual AM/FM/Weather Tuner will automatically scroll what is being received. You can even store a specific display for future reference, should you need to recall specific RDS information at a later time. Toggle the source button among the available modes: AM, FM, WX (Weather Band), and Aux input.

    The Dual AM/FM/Weather Tuner utilizes Interference Adaptive Signal Processing (IASP) circuitry and ships with a proprietary amplified AM/FM antenna, which can deliver crystal-clear reception up to 200 feet from the tuner location. Once connected, the Dual AM/FM/Weather Tuner should immediately receive broadcast signals and RDS when it is available. A 6-foot pre-terminated coaxial cable is included; longer runs of coax cable are sold separately.

    The Dual AM/FM/Weather Tuner is compatible with any audio system that is capable of repeating IR, as it is designed for IR control via infrared signals received by an audio distribution system. In the NuVo Simplese D or Essentia audio distribution systems (sold separately), the IR emitter outputs act as a repeater to IR signals incident on the system keypads; no external IR emitters are required.

    The Dual AM/FM/Weather Tuner's auxiliary audio input will accept an audio signal from an external component. The auxiliary input requires a standard RCA cable for the connection (included). The mini jack labeled "IR pass-thru" mini connection is used for connecting forwarded IR signals to an audio component connected to the auxiliary audio input.

    The fine-tuning feature enables tuning with a smaller frequency step to include more station frequency possibilities, which may be used in areas allowing many low-power broadcast stations, down to .05 MHz increments for FM and 1 kHz steps for AM. Additional controls include adjustable brightness, bass and treble equalizers, and balance control.

    If you have a NuVo Concerto (sold separately), the Dual AM/FM/Weather Tuner can provide direct, real-time communication across NuVoNet, the Concerto's complete system communication protocol. You'll have access to the Dual AM/FM/Weather Tuner through your Concerto Display Keypads throughout your home as well as access to RDS streaming artist/selection information in real time.

    The Dual AM/FM/Weather Tuner package includes the Plug-N-Play setup software designed to quickly move you through the tuner's setup options in a methodical fashion, and allow access to the more advanced setup features. Once set, just download the configuration to your Dual AM/FM/Weather Tuner via its RS232 or USB port; Ethernet and USB cables are included.

    Keep a Remote Control for NuVo Tuners (sold separately) in every connected room in the house! These IR remotes send signals through the integrated IR receivers in the connected keypads.

    Rack mount your tuner in any standard equipment rack using NuVo Rack Ears.
