The Radio Data System (RDS) is a system in which inaudible digi-

tal information is transmitted in addition to the normal FM radio pro-

gram. RDS offers several useful features, the followings are avail-

able on your radio.

Program Service (PS) name

The Program Service name is a text usually consisting of not more

than eight alphanumeric characters. It indicates information about

the program being broadcast. A station name or an abbreviation is

shown in the display instead of the tuned frequency (Example: BBC

R4).

Additional information about other programs within the same net-

work is transmitted when your broadcasting station is using an

Enhanced Other Network. You will hear traffic flashes of other pro-

grams within the network automatically if the Traffic Announcement

function is switched on.

tions provide Traffic information. The Traffic Announcement identi-

fication (TA) indicates Traffic information is being broadcast. When
