Listening to the Radio—Continued
RDS is only available on the unit, only in areas where
RDS broadcasts are available.
What is RDS?
RDS stands for Radio Data System and is a method of
transmitting data in FM radio signals. It was developed
within the European Broadcasting Union (EBU) and
many European FM radio stations use it these days.
The unit supports and displays Program Service Name
(PS) and Radio Text (RT) RDS data.
The RDS indicator appears on the display when the unit
is tuned to an FM station that supports RDS.
Notes:
• If the signal from an RDS station is weak, RDS data
may be displayed intermittently or not at all.
• The message “Waiting” may appear while the RT data
is being received.
