Receiving traffic information stations with RDS-EON

Many FM stations regularly transmit current
reports on the traffic conditions in their broad-
casting area.
Stations transmitting traffic announcements
broadcast an identification signal that your
car radio can evaluate. If this signal is identi-
fied, then TP will appear in the display (Traffic
Program).
In addition to these, there are also stations
which do not actually transmit traffic informa-
tion themselves, such as NDR3, but by using
RDS-EON they make it possible to receive
the traffic messages broadcast by traffic in-
formation stations in the same station group.
If you listen to one of these stations, then TP
will also appear in the display as long as the
traffic information priority feature has also
been activated, i. e. TA must also appear in
the display.
Should a traffic announcement be broadcast,
then the radio will automatically switch to the
traffic information station in that group (in this
case, NDR2). The traffic announcement will
be played for its duration and then the radio
will automatically switch back to the original
program (NDR3).

Warning beep
