Have bought a Technika DAB 109 CRF radio and no instructions. 1. how do I tune it and SAVE to presets 2. How do I set the alarm? Thank you

Manually tune to a station and hold a knob until it beeps. Do the same for all presets.

All of these answers are rubbish, setting presets on the technika dab1101st is as follows...

Select the station you want to store, press and HOLD the preset button so the display shows "preset store" (if it says "preset recall" , you didn't hold the button), select the preset you want to store the station under, then press enter. Done. ??

I had the same problem - alarm going off at midnight. Hold down the Menu and Select buttons at the same time to reset the radio. This removes the alarm. It will rescan and find all digital stations again but you will lose any presets.

Setting the Clock 1. Press and hold the CLOCK button until the hour begins to flash 2. Use the left arrow and right arrow buttons to change the hour. 3. Press the CLOCK button again. Use the left arrow and right arrow buttons to change the minutes. 4. Press the CLOCK button again to save.
PRESET Stations the PRESET stations: 1. Tune to desired station. 2. Press and hold the PRESET button until the PRE-SET indicator on the display begins to flash 3. Use the left arrow and right arrow buttons to select the PRESET location for the station. Ten locations (0-9) are available. 4. Press the PRESET button to save the location. To tune a PRESET station: Press and release the PRESET button to step through the PRESET stations.

Here are the Instructions for setting the clock on the RCA RS 1285.


1. Press Clock until time flashes (12:00)

2. Press Tuning Up or Down to set the Hours and then press Preset Up or Down to Shift to Minute Digits.

3.Press Tuning Up or Down to Set the Minutes.

4.Press Save to save the settings and stop to quit setting.

Finally sussed out how to (re)set presets, overall you need a little patience:
Probably best to press Autotune before we set off and let it do its thing.
Press 'presets' and find a free channel or the one you want to change, leave it until you can hear the station its on play.
Now, press 'jog/select' and WAIT until it says <SELECT> (but don't wait too long when it says this or you'll have to start again)
Use dial to find station you want AND LEAVE to tune in.
Press AND hold presets down until number flashes.
Press jog/select once briefly (normally).
Press presets once briefly...it should now say "Saved"
Leave to save for a few seconds.
Voila!
You can now change station either by pressing Presets and moving dial...waiting for the station to load OR press jog/select to manually tune to the station of your choice using the dial.

I HAS SAME PROBLEM BUT FOUND THE ANSWER. PRESS STANDBY AND TURN UNIT ON, THEN PRESS ALARM BUTTON, DISPLAY SHOWS ALARM 1, PRESS SELECT BUTTON DISPLAY SHOWS FM/DAB/BUZZ, PRESS LEFT/RIGHT BUTTONS TO SWITCH BETWEEN WAKE UP OPTIONS, THEN PRESS SELECT AGAIN, DISPLAY SHOWS OFF, PRESS LEFT/RIGHT BUTTON TO TOGGLE BETWEEN ON/OFF LEAVE 'ON' SHOWING, PRESS SELECT AGAIN DISPLAY WILL SHOW ALARM TIME, USE LEFT/RIGHT TO SET HOUR THEN PRERSS SELECT, USE LEFT/RIGHT TO SET MINUTES TEHM PRESS SELECT AGAIN, DISPLAY WILL NOW SHOW SMALL ALARM CLOCK IN DISPLAY WINDOW, THIS MEANS ALARM IS NOW SET.

Solution. Do NOT use the remote control. Instead use only 3 buttons on the top panel of the CD/Radio. Select radio station, tune, finally program. Repeat up to 20 times for each preset. If you start at preset 1 and save it, the next preset will automatically be saved on preset 2, and so on. It works!

I used lateral thinking! looked at the instructions for my other matsui DAB radio and worked it out from there. With this Ferguson model you have to find the station you want manually and then press one of the preset buttons (it only has 4 but these are enough for me)

Just bought the same unit but the instruction manual was double dutch. After messing around for a while I managed to do it like this. Whe the unit is set to DAB, Press the Sel+/TU+ or the Sel-/TU- button on the unit (not the remote) until the DAB station displays and then press the Select CH+ button again on the unit. Wait a few seconds while the word "tuning" is displayed and that station should now play. To save the station as a preset do this. When the station is playing use the remote and press the PRG/MEM button once. Then press the number for which preset you want that station to be. The station will be saved. EG to save Radio 1 as Preset station 1, play Radio 1, Press PRG/MEM, then press number 1. After that whenever you press number 1 on the remote Radio 1 will play. Do the same with any other station you wish to save. To save station 10 press the 0/10 button on the remote. To save station 11 press 10+ then 1, 12 is 10+ the 2 etc. Good luck Dopeyemma
