RADIO DATA SERVICE (RDS)
Some FM radio stations broadcast Radio Data Service
(RDS) text along with their programs. Station
Identification Text is displayed in the first 8 characters
of the lower line. This text generally does not change.
Descriptive Text is displayed on the top line. This text
may describe the station’s format or it may show the
song title and artist.
CD-Text
Audio CDs now include descriptive text stored along
with their audio programs. The Radio CD will decode
and display this text.
MP3 File ID3 Text Information
MP3 files downloaded from the Internet may contain
ID3 text information. ID3 text information can be added
to MP3 files as the file is created from an uncom-
pressed audio source. The Radio CD will display this
text when present in MP3 files. If there is no ID3 text
information, the Radio CD will display the file name.
Choosing Text Displays
The JOG menu has separate RDS text and DISC text
headings that let you choose between scrolling text
display, static text display or no text display.
