An introduction to RDS (For Europe)
Radio Data System (RDS) is a system used by most FM
radio stations to provide listeners with various kinds of
information—the name of the station and the kind of show
they’re broadcasting, for example.
One feature of RDS is that you can search by type of
program. For example, you can search for a station that’s
broadcasting a show with the program type,
JAZZ .
You can search the following program types:
Note
• In addition, there are three other program types, ALARM ,
ALARMTST , and NO TYPE . ALARM and ALARMTST
are used for emergency announcements. NO TYPE
appears when a program type cannot be found.

4
Press
ENTER
to search for the program type.
The system starts searching through the station presets
for a match, stopping when it was found one. Repeat to

If
NO PTY is displayed it means the tuner couldn’t find
that program type at the time of the search.
RDS searches station presets only. If no stations have
been preset, or if the program type could not be found
among the station presets
NO PTY is displayed.
