What is RDS?
RDS stands for
Radio Data System
and is a method of
transmitting data in FM radio signals. It was developed
within the European Broadcasting Union (EBU) and
many European FM radio stations use it these days.
The CBX-300 supports and displays Program Service
Name (PS) and Radio Text (RT) RDS data.
The RDS indicator appears on the display when the
CBX-300 is tuned to an FM station that supports RDS.
Notes:
• If the signal from an RDS station is weak, RDS data
may be displayed intermittently or not at all.
• The message “Waiting” may appear while the RT data
is being received.
