(digital data) for FM broadcasts together with the broad-
cast signal. Tuners and receivers designed for RDS re-
ception can extract the information from the broadcast
signal for use with various functions such as automatic
display of the station name.
This unit is equipped with the following functions utilizing RDS data :
PTY (Program Type Identification) Search :§
The tuner automatically searches for a station which is
currently broadcasting a specified program type (genre).
PS (Program Service Name) Display :
When an RDS broadcast is received, the station name
is automatically displayed.
The "R.D.S" indicator lights up when an RDS broad-
cast (signal) is received.

ferent names depending on countries or areas.
