RDS Broadcast Reception
This Rotel unit is equipped with RDS (Radio Data Systems) reception
capabilities. The RDS broadcast system provides additional functionality
to FM radio reception by transmitting encoded information along with the
radio signal. This signal is decoded by an RDS receiver and can provide
a range of informational features including:
1. A display of the station's identifying name (e.g. BBC1).
2. A display of the station's program content (e.g. ROCK or NEWS).
3. Traffic information broadcasts.
4. A scrolling text display for announcements or information.
5. Current time and date.
RDS broadcasting has been widely available in many European markets
for years. There are a large number of RDS stations and most users will be
familiar with the features and operation.

for clean mono reception than for stereo reception.
