Advanced Features
Using the Radio Data System (RDS) (continued)
Notes:
The same station name can be stored in different channels.
In a certain area or during certain time periods, the station names
may temporarily be different.
Notes for RDS operation
If any of the following events occur, it does not mean that the
unit is faulty:
"PS", "NO PS" and a station name appear alternately, and the unit
does not operate properly.
If a particular station is not broadcasting properly or a station is
conducting tests, the RDS reception function may not work
properly.
When you receive an RDS station whose signal is too weak,
information like the station name may not be displayed.
"NO PS", "NO PTY" or "NO RT" will flash for about 5 seconds, and
then the frequency will be displayed.
Notes for radio text:
The first 10 characters of the radio text will appear for 4 seconds
and then they will scroll across the display.
If you tune in to an RDS station which is not broadcasting any
radio text, "NO RT" will be displayed when you switch to the radio
text position.
Whilst radio text data is received or when the text contents
change, "RT" will be displayed.
To recall stations in memory
To specify programmed types and select stations (PTY search):
You can search a station by specifying the programme type (news,
sports, traffic programme, etc. ... see pages 28 - 29) from the stations
