information if this is being transmitted by the broadcaster. RDS information will often
include the station name, detail about the programme and the current time.

is recommended), to ensure the maximum signal strength and the best possible
sound quality when scanning or listening to FM stations.
Press the ‘Mode’ button and scroll through the modes until you reach “FM Radio”.
The first time you select FM mode on your AirStream 10 it will display the default
