EON (Enhanced Other Network)

Stations that offer EON also transmit information about other RDS stations that have traffic information. When you are tuned to a station that is not transmitting traffic information, but another RDS station starts transmitting a traffic bulletin, the tuner automatically switches to the other station for the duration of the bulletin.

Alarm

When an emergency transmission (announcing disasters, etc.) is sent, all current functions are interrupted to allow the warning to be received.
