Using the RDS (Radio Data System) when receiving 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 in to an FM station which provides the RDS service, the RDS indicator lights up on the display window.

With the system, you can receive the following types of RDS signals:

PS
