Radio operation with RDS (Radio Data System)

The Radio Data System offers you more convenience when listening to FM radio sta- tions.

More and more radio stations have begun to broadcast RDS information alongside their programmes.

As soon as a programme has been identi- fied, the station name including a regional identifier, if applicable, will appear in the dis- play, for example, NDR1 NDS (regional pro- gramme in Lower Saxony, Germany).

When RDS is activated, the preset buttons become programme buttons. You now know exactly which programme you have tuned into, making it easy to find the desired sta- tion quickly.

But RDS offers you further advantages:

AF - Alternative frequency

The AF (Alternative Frequency) function makes sure that the strongest frequency of the currently selected programme is always tuned in automatically.

This function is activated when “AF” appears in the display.

In order to switch this function on or off,

•press the AF button briefly.

While searching for the strongest reception signal, the radio may switch to mute briefly. If “SEARCH” appears in the display when

switching on the radio or recalling one of the stored frequencies, the unit is automatically searching for an alternative frequency.

“SEARCH” will disappear from the display when the alternative frequency has been found or after the frequency band has been run through completely.

If the reception quality of the selected pro- gramme becomes too bad:

•Tune into another station.

REG - regional programme

Certain radio programmes are split up at times into regional programmes offering lo- cal information. The 1st programme broad- cast by NDR, for example, offers pro- grammes with different contents in the north- ern states of Germany Schleswig-Holstein, Hamburg and Lower Saxony at certain times of the day.

If you are listening to one regional pro- gramme and move to an area where anoth- er linked regional programme becomes stronger, the unit will switch to that pro- gramme.

If you wish to continue listening to the first programme,

•press the AF button for approximately 1 sec.

“REG ON” appears in the display.

If you leave the service area of the regional programme tuned into, or if you would like to take advantage of the full RDS service, switch to “REG OFF”.

•Press the AF button for approximately 1 sec. until “REG OFF” appears.

If the REG function is active, “REG ON” will be briefly displayed each time the radio is switched on.

Selecting a waveband

(only Casablanca RCM 127, Cannes RCM 127, Woodstock DJ A)

You can select between the following wave- bands:

FM 87.5 - 108 MHz

MW 531 - 1602 kHz

LW 153 - 279 kHz

•Press the BND button until the desired waveband shows on the display panel.

Note:

In the DSC menu you can deactivate the station selection on either MW or LW or for both wavebands at the same time.

This has the advantage that only the re- quired bands will allow to be activated, so that you must press the BND button less often. For more information, please refer to chapter “DSC programming - AM ON/OFF”.
