When you are tuned to an RDS station, the station
name will appear on the display, instead of the
frequency. Most RDS stations provide their station
name, the time of day and a Program Type (PTY) for
their current programming. Some stations also provide
the name of the current program.
Finding RDS Stations
To find RDS stations, perform the following steps:
1. Press the SEEK TYPE button or turn the P
LIST knob to display the program type list.
2. Turn the knob either clockwise or counterclockwise
to select a program type. The list is alphabetical.
If you select ANY TYPE your radio will seek to
the first PTY available.
3. Press the SEEK TYPE button to activate search.
DISP (Display): Press this knob to change what appears
on the display while using RDS. Pressing this knob will
also display an RDS station frequency or program type
when the radio is on. The display options are station
name, station frequency, PTY and the name of the
program (if available). Pressing and holding this knob
will activate the RDS default display.
