RDS stations in alphabetical order without

stations with the clearest signals.

all the FM and FM RDS stations in the

stations broadcasting the same program,
then stores only the one with the clearest
signal. The selected RDS stations are sorted
alphabetically by their Program Service
name, then assigned a 2-character preset
code. For more details on RDS, see
page 25.
Regular FM stations are assigned 2-
character preset codes and stored after the
RDS station.
When done, “FINISH” appears in the
display momentarily and the receiver
returns to the normal operation.
