About the Radio Data System (RDS)

The Radio Data System (RDS) is a broadcasting service that allows radio stations to send additional information along with the regular broadcast signal. This tuner offers convenient RDS features, such as station name display. RDS is available only on FM stations*.

*Not all FM stations provide the RDS service, neither do they provide the same type of services. If you are not familiar with the RDS system, check with your local radio stations for details on RDS services in your area.

Note

RDS may not work properly if the station you are tuned to is not transmitting the RDS signal properly, or if the signal strength is weak.

To receive RDS broadcasts

Simply select a station from the FM band. When you tune in a station that provides RDS services, the station name* appears in the display.

*If an RDS broadcast is not received, the station name may not appear in the display.

zHint

When a station name is displayed, you can check the frequency by pressing FM DISPLAY repeatedly.
