Radio Data System 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.
With the unit, you can receive the following types of Radio
Data System signals.

PS (Program Service):

Shows commonly known station names.

PTY (Program Type):

Shows types of broadcast programs.

TEXT (Radio Text):

Shows text messages the station sends.
