Some FM stations broadcast in stereo. In this case, STEREO appears on the display. Listening to
the two stereo channels requires stereo headphones. Stereo can be turned off and on with the
[FM ST] button. It may be automatically disabled for a weak signal. In some situations, you may
get improved reception by turning stereo off. The stereo setting is stored in the station
memory when the frequency is saved.
7. FM RDS (radio data system)
RDS is a means for FM radio stations to transmit data along with their programming. Not all FM
stations employ RDS, but the ones that do typically transmit the station name, the station type,
the song artist and title when playing music, and occasionally the time. When RDS is present, the
RDS icon on the display is shown and the RDS data information appears at the bottom of the
display. Use the [INFO] button to cycle through the RDS data options. This radio supports the
following RDS information:
PS—Program Service Name
• DATE—Date and Time (“NO DATE” if not present)
• PTY—Program type: News, Drama, Rock music… (“NONE” if not present)
• RT— Radio Text may contain artist and title information for music (“NO RT” if not present)
RDS date information can be used to automatically set the radio clock. Refer to the
Clock Setting topic for additional information.
