Using the RDS (Radio Data System) to Receive FM Stations
RDS allows FM stations to send an additional signal along with their regular program signals.
For example, the stations send their station names, as well as information about what type of
program they broadcast, such as sports or music, etc.
When tuned to an FM station which provides the RDS service, the RDS indicator lights up on
the display.
NOTE: RDS may not operate correctly if the station tuned is not transmitting data
properly or if the signal strength is weak.
With the receiver, you can receive the following types of RDS signals.
PS (Program Service) :
PTY (Program Type) :
RT (Radio Text) :
shows commonly known station names
shows types of broadcast programs
shows text messages the station sends
On characters displayed
When the display shows PS, PTY, or RT signals, the following characters are used.
* The display cannot differentiate upper case and lower case letters and always uses upper
case letters.
* The display cannot show accented letters, “A”, for instance, may stand for accented
“A's” like A, A, A, A, A, and A.”
