Radio operation with RDS
(Radio Data System)
ThIsradio is equipped to receive Radio Data
System or RDS signals. RDS is a second-
I
ary signal used by many FM radio stations
to broadcast additional information. Blau-
I
punkt has been a key player in developing
RDS in Europe.
This radio’s RDS features include program
service name (PS), which automatically dis-
plays RDS station’s identification such as
WNYC-FM or THE WAVE. Other RDS fea-
tures included are alternative frequency
switching (AF), program type identification
and search (PTY), and capability to receive
future Emergency Alert System (EAS) mes-
sage broadcasted by RDS stations. All are
explained in this section.

The AF (Alternative Frequency) function

l press the AF button briefly.
While searching for the strongest reception
signal, the radio may switch to mute briefly.
If “SEARCH” appears in the display when
switching on the radio or recalling one of the
14
stored frequencies, the unit is automatically
searching for an alternative frequency.
“SEARCH” will disappear from the display
when the alternative frequency has been
found or after the frequency band has been
run through completely.
