Receiving RDS
broadcasts
This system allows you to use Radio Data
System (RDS), which enables radio
stations to send additional information
along with the regular programming
signal. This system offers convenient
RDS features, such as Program Service
name display. RDS is available only for
FM stations.*
* Not all FM stations provide RDS service, nor
do they provide the same type of services. If
you are not familiar with the RDS services in
your area, check with your local radio stations
for details.
Simply select a station on the FM
band.
When you tune to a station that provides
RDS services, the Program Service name
appears in the display panel.
You can check the RDS information by
pressing DISPLAY repeatedly.
Note
RDS may not work properly if the station you
tuned to is not transmitting the RDS signal or if
the signal strength is weak.
