You will need to perform All Frequency Scan only if the default autoscan 
is unable to completely memorize all channels (i.e., if the frequencies 
of certain channels are not listed in the default frequency table).
Perform this function will take you about 30 to 60 minutes, please be 
patient.

To run Time Shift functions, you need a sound card which can support full-

better performance at Time Shift function.

duplex operation:
. Creative PCI 64/128 under Win98SE system
