Using an SD memory card with your radio

An SD card can be used in your radio for recording, playing back previously recorded radio programs, or playing back MP2 and MP3 fi les transferred from a PC.

Depending on the radio station a 128MB SD card will give typically 2- 4 hours of recording time. If you are using a new SD card ensure that it is formatted correctly.

Many different brands and capacities of SD card are available. Your RD55 has been tested with the most popular cards up to 1 GB. However, there are many different card variants available and not all cards can be guar- anteed to work in the RD55. The RD55 will not work with cards greater than 2GB capacity or cards which use the High Capacity Secure Digital (HCSD) standard.
