are enhanced.
TA: Traffic information can be received from
the current station or stations in other network.
AF: The frequency list of preset RDS stations
is updated by EON data. EON enables the
radio to make fuller use of RDS information.
It constantly updates the AF list of preset
stations, including the one that currently tuned
into. If you preset a station around the area at
your home, you will later be able to receive the
same station at an alternative frequency, or
any other station serving the same program,
EON also keeps track of locally available TP
stations for quick reception.
