Searching for a Program by PTY Codes
One of the advantages of the RDS service is that you can locate a particular kind of program from the preset channels by specifying the PTY codes.
To search for a program using the PTY codes
On the front panel:
1.Press PTY SEARCH while listening to an FM station so that Control @/ #buttons work for selecting PTY code.
“PTY” and “SELECT” alternate on the display.
2.Press Control @ / # until the PTY code you want appears on the display.
Each time you press the button, the display gives you the PTY codes described on page 21.
3.Press PTY SEARCH again.
While searching, “SEARCH” and the selected PTY code alternate on the display.
The receiver searches 40 preset channels, stops when it finds the one you have selected, and tunes in that station.
To continue searching after the first stop:
Press PTY SEARCH again while the indications on the display are flashing.
If no program is found, “NOTFOUND” appears on the display.
To stop searching any time during the process:
Press PTY SEARCH while searching.
