About RDS broadcasting

Using the RDS (Radio Data System) to receive FM stations

RDS allows FM stations to send an additional signal along with their regular program signals. For example,the stations send their station names,as well as information about what type of program they broadcast, such as sports or music,etc.

When tuned to an FM station which provides the RDS service,the RDS indicator lights up on the display.

PTY (Program Type) indication and PTY-SEARCH function

One of the advantages of the RDS service is that you can locate a particular kind of program from the preset channels by specifying the PTY codes.
