Default Radio setting (preset stations only)

I have kind of a silly question here & need some advice:

I have been looking in the owners manual & can not locate the instructions on how to get my stock radio to scan through my selected preset stations (only)

It will scan or seek everything but not preset stations only??

That would beat leaning forward and pushing the button.

Default Preset station scan

Out of my 2010 Street Glide manual states:

Preset SCAN Tuning

See G in FLHX, FLHTC and FLTRX LCD Display Examples. In preset SCAN, the radio continuously tunes from one preset station to the next until the preset SCAN is cancelled. A P.SC icon will display while preset SCAN is active.
In the FM band, press and hold the More soft key for approximately 3 seconds. Each preset station remains tuned in for 10 seconds before the radio moves to the next station.
To select a station, cancel preset SCAN while the radio is tuned to that station. Press the MODE SEL switch UP or DN to cancel a preset SCAN.


Hope this helps.

I use the right handlebars switch to jump from preset to preset.

I was just trying to figure this out yesterday. Seems like they could have
figured out how to do this using just the hand controls.

I had a 05 standard that I added a sony radio with the biketronics interface
so you could use the OE radio handcontrols.

IIRC you could use the hand controls to skip presets only. So I think they
could do this.
