ABOUT RDS
The Radio Data System (RDS) permits sending small amounts of digital
information using conventional FM radio broadcasts. The T 737 supports
two RDS modes, station-name (PS mode) and radio-text (RT mode). Not
every FM station incorporates RDS in its broadcast signal. In most areas you
will nd from one to several RDS-enabled stations, but it is by no means
impossible that your favorite stations will not be broadcasting RDS data.
VIEW RDS TEXT
When an RDS-enabled FM broadcast is tuned, the readout’s character section
will show its station-name (PS) text: ROCK101”, for example.
Press the AVR 3’s [INFO] key to toggle the readout between this and the
stations radio-text (RT) readout, if any, which might scroll song- or artist-
name, or any other text of the stations choosing.
LISTENING TO XM RADIO
The T 737 is “XM Ready” which means that with the addition of separately sold
XM Mini-Tuner CPC-9000 and XM Mini-Tuner Home Dock, it has everything you
need to listen to live XM. Everything else is built right in. Just subscribe to the
XM service and your T 737 will be ready to receive XM content.
