About RDS (Radio Data System)
This unit has a built-in RDS decoder system that
supports broadcast stations transmitting RDS
data.
This system can display the name of the broad-
cast station being received (PS) and can auto-
matically switch to the broadcast station with the
best reception as you move long distances (AF
switching).
Also, if a traffic announcement or programme
type is broadcast from an RDS station, no matter
what mode you are in, this broadcast is received.
Additionally, if EON information is received, this
information enables automatic switching of other
preset stations on the same network and interrup-
tion of the station being received with traffic infor
-
mation from other stations (TP). This function is
not available in some areas.
When using the RDS function, always set the ra
-
dio to FM mode.
AF : Alternative Frequency
PS : Programme Service Name
PTY : Programme Type
EON : Enhanced Other Network
TP : Traffic Programme
RDS interrupt does not function during AM radio
reception.

data, PS appears in the display.
CAUTION
For some countries, RDS (Radio Data
System) broadcasting is not supported.
It is recommended to turn off all the RDS
