About RDS Broadcasting
Using the RDS (Radio Data System) to
receive FM stations
RDS allows FM stations to send an additional signal along
with their regular program signals.
For example, the stations send their station names, as well
as information about what type of program they broadcast,
such as sports or music, etc.
When tuned to an FM station which provides the RDS
service, the RDS indicator lights up on the display.
Description on RDS function
• PTY (Program Type) : Displays the type of program
currently being broadcast.
• PS NAME (Program Service Name) : Indicates the
name of broadcasting station and is composed of 8
characters.
• RT (Radio Text) : Decodes the text broadcast by
a station (if any) and is composed of maximum 64
characters.
• CT (Clock Time) : Decodes the real time clock from the
FM frequency. Some stations may not transmit PTY, RT
or CT information therefore this may not be displayed
in all cases.
