EON – Enhanced other network
In RDS, EON makes it possible to exchange station information within a station network. Traffic information, for example, can be for- warded automatically from a traffic informa- tion station to a station which does not broadcast traffic information in the same network. After the traffic announcement has been put through, the radio switches back to the original station.
