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.

Then, the display shows its PS name.

Notes:

•RDS is not available for AM broadcasts.

•RDS may not operate correctly if the tuned station is not transmitting RDS signals properly or if the signal strength is weak.

You can see the following RDS signals the station sends on the display.

PS NAME (Program Service):

While searching, “PS NAME” appears, then the station names will be displayed. “NO PS” appears if no signal is sent.

RT (Radio Text):
