ST-220
Commentary

An FM/AM tuner equipped with a dial scale with a long running distance and an FM center tuning meter.

The front end uses a FM3 series varicon and FET to ensure high sensitivity, and the intermediate frequency section uses a phase linear ceramic filter.

A PLL IC is used for the MPX part of the FM tuner.

An FM muting circuit is built in to suppress noise between stations.

There are two types of output terminals, fixed and variable.
