Switching to a Program Type of Your Choice

Temporarily

By receiving EON (Enhanced Other Networks) data sent by
FM RDS stations, the EON function allows the unit to switch
temporarily to a broadcast program of your choice (TA,
NEWS, and INFO) from a different station.
The EON function only works when you are listening to a
preset FM RDS stations providing EON data.
The EON indicator lights while receiving a station with the
EON data.

How the EON function actually works:

selected, the unit automatically switches to the station. The
indicator of received PTY code starts flashing.
«
When the program is over, “EON END” appears on the
display, and the unit goes back to the previously tuned
station, but the EON function still remains activated.

If there is a station broadcasting the program you have
selected
The unit tunes in the program. The indicator of received
PTY code starts flashing.
«
When the program is over, “EON END” appears on the
display, and the unit goes back to the previously tuned
station, but the EON function still remains activated.
CASE 3
If the FM station you are listening to is broadcasting
the program you have selected
The unit continues to receive the station but the indicator
of received PTY code starts flashing.
«
When the program is over, “EON END” appears on the

More about the EON function
The EON data sent from some stations may not be compatible
with this unit. In this case, the EON function may not work
correctly.
While listening to a program tuned in by the EON function, the
station does not change even if another network station starts
broadcasting a program of the same EON data.
The EON function is canceled when you change the source to CD,
TAPE, or MD/AUX, while it is temporarily canceled when you
change the source to AM (MW/LW).
