■ What is RDS?
RDS stands for Radio Data System and is a method of
transmitting data in FM radio signals. It was developed by
the European Broadcasting Union (EBU) and is available
in most European countries. Many FM stations use it these
days. In addition to displaying text information, RDS can
also help you find radio stations by type (e.g., news, sport,
rock, etc.).
The AV receiver supports four types of RDS information:
PS (Program Service)
When tuned to an RDS station that’s broadcasting PS
information, the station’s name will be displayed. Pressing
DISPLAY will display the frequency for 3 seconds.
RT (Radio Text)
When tuned to an RDS station that’s broadcasting text
information, the text will be shown on the AV receiver’s
display as described in the next section.
PTY (Program Type)
This allows you to search for RDS radio stations by type
(
➔ page 26 ).
TP (Traffic Program)
This allows you to search for RDS radio stations that
broadcast traffic information (
➔ page 26 ).
