Program type (PTY)*
You can also base the selection of a
station on the program type (PTY).
Via RDS (Radio Broadcast Data Sys-
tem) some stations transmit short infor-
mation that is briefly displayed on the
screen when the corresponding fre-
quency is selected, and which provides
information on the type of program
being received: news (NEWS), sports
(SPORTS), pop (POP MUSIC), culture
(CULTURE), etc.
If reception is poor or interference is
present, there may be a delay before
PTY is available.
PTY can also provide information
on emergencies and natural
disasters. If the station transmits
emergency PTY information, "ALERT"
appears on the screen.<
