Car Forum / Driving, Maintenance, Tuning / Car Audio / June 2007Alpine 7803S help needed
I am the happy new owner of a 1988 Porsche 911 Targa. The car came with an Alpine 7803S radio/CD changer but with no owners manual for the radio. I've spoken to tech support at Alpine but they haven't been able to help me and all my searches for an owners manual have been unsuccessful. I have figured out almost everything I need to know about the radio with a few exceptions: How do you set the preset buttons to remember a radio station? What does the DAP button do? There is a button on the upper left of the faceplate (next to the clk and scn button labelled MO/DX.. What does that do? >I am the happy new owner of a 1988 Porsche 911 Targa.

What does that do? To set the station presets, press and hold the button for about 2 seconds or until display starts flashing. release the button and press it again and the display will stop flashing. The station is set. DAP: That unit should have 4 bands FM1 FM2 AM and DAP. You can set 6 stations on each band You can set 6 FM stations on FM 1 & 2 and 6 stations on AM DAP lets you preset AM and FM stations on the same band. So you can have 3 AM and 3 FM stations on DAP. Or 2 AM and 4 FM. Any combination you want even all FM or AM. MO/DX is a local/distance-Stereo/Mono switch. It makes the FM Tuner weaker. If you traveling and the Station your listening to starts fading out, you can put this switch to Mono/DX and the tuner will let you receive the station for awhile longer, but it will only play in mono instead of stereo. > >I am the happy new owner of a 1988Porsche911 Targa.

My apologies for waiting so long to follow up on your response. I have been out of town with only sporadic access to email. I followed your directions and it worked perfectly. Thanks for your prompt response, even if mine was not so prompt. It continues to amaze me that I could get an answer in so short a period of time via the internet when Alpine tech support was not able to help me at all. Thanks again >> >I am the happy new owner of a 1988Porsche911 Targa.
