Note
– You can select one of the Radio Data System
information types only when the corresponding
Radio Data System indicator lights up in the front
panel display. It may take a while for the system to
receive all of the Radio Data System data from the
station.
– You can select only the available Radio Data
System information type being offered by the
station.
– If the signals being received are not strong enough,
the system may not be able to utilize the Radio
Data System data. In particular, RT mode requires
a large amount of data and may not be available
even when other Radio Data System information
types are available.
– In case of poor reception conditions, press AUTO/
MANUAL to select Manual tuning. (Page 46)
– If the signal strength is weakened by external
interference while the system is receiving the
Radio Data System data, the reception may be cut
off unexpectedly and “...WAIT” appears in the
front panel display.
– When RT mode is selected, the system can display
the program information with a maximum of 64
alphanumeric characters, including the umlaut
symbol. Unavailable characters are displayed with
underscores “_”.
– If the reception is cut off when CT mode is
selected, “CT WAIT” appears in the front panel
display.
