Other convenient RDS functions and adjustments
Automatic selection of the station when using the number buttons
Usually when you press the number button, the preset station is tuned in.
However, when the preset station is an RDS station, something different will happen. If the signals from that preset station are not sufficient for good reception, this unit, using the AF data, tunes in to another frequency broadcasting the same programme as the original preset station is broadcasting.
