Using the Radio Data
System (RDS)
What is the Radio Data System?
Radio Data System (RDS) is a broadcasting
service that allows radio stations to send
additional information along with the
regular programme signal. This tuner offers
convenient RDS features such as station
name display. RDS is available only for FM
stations.*
Note
RDS may not work properly if the station you are
tuned to is not transmitting the RDS signal properly,
or if the signal strength is weak.
* Not all FM stations provide RDS service, nor do
they provide the same type of services. If you are
not familiar with the RDS system, check with your
local radio stations for details on RDS services in
your area.
Receiving RDS broadcasts
Simply select a station from the FM band.
When you tune in a station that provides
RDS services, the station name appears on
the front panel display.
To check the RDS information
Each time you press DISPLAY, the display
changes as follows:
Station name*
r
Frequency
r
SOUND FIELD
* If the RDS broadcast is not received, the station
name may not appear on the front panel display.
