thats called a seek feature and its common in AM and FM broadcast radios,
very different from an amateur tranceiver.
They do that so people dont have to tune the signal...it just finds the
strongest signals and tunes to center frequency instead of people having to
spend time tuning.
Amateur radios do not exhibit these features so dont worry about that kinda
thing.
Automatic tuner or auto tuning features that are talked about in amateur
radios are refering to antenna tuners not frequency tuners.
This is where you press a button and it automatically changes the impedance
to match as close to 50 ohms as possible or close to something the
transmitter can handle.
