That's another nice thing about Aiwa portables: they remember that you've
selected manual gain control. (Sharps do by default, since they don't offer
auto gain at all.) Aiwas, unfortunately, cannot overwrite, so what I said
before about pause-then-record on a Sharp can't be done on an Aiwa.
There was one tiny plus to manual End Search: on a Sony portable you can zip
to the start of the disc by pressing END SEARCH, PLAY, STOP, PLAY without
having to eject and reinsert. Does that still work on an R900 that's been
set for automatic end searching? If it does, then the End Search key's only
benefit is for Start Search.
