An introduction to RDS

Radio Data System (RDS) is a system used by

most FM radio stations to provide listeners with

various kinds of information—the name of the

station and the kind of show they're

broadcasting, for example.

One feature of RDS is that you can search by

type of program. For example, you can search

for a station that's broadcasting a show with

the program type, JAZZ.

You can search the following program types:

NEWS – News

AFFAIRS – Current Affairs

INFO – General Information

SPORT – Sport

EDUCATE – Educational

DRAMA – Radio plays, etc.

CULTURE – National or

regional culture, theater,

etc.

SCIENCE – Science and

technology

VARIED – Usually talk-

based material, such as

quiz shows or interviews.

POP M – Pop music

ROCK M – Rock music

EASY M – Easy listening

LIGHT M – 'Light' classical

music

CLASSICS – 'Serious'

classical music

OTHER M – Music not

fitting above categories

Note

1 In addition, there are three other program types, TEST, ALARM, and NONE. ALARM and TEST are used for emergency an-

nouncements. You can't search for these, but the tuner will switch automatically to this RDS broadcast signal. NONE appears

when a program type cannot be found.

2 • If any noise is picked up while displaying the RT scroll, some characters may be displayed incorrectly.

• If you see NO RADIO TEXT DATA in the RT display, it means no RT data is sent from the broadcast station. The display will

automatically switch to the PS data display (if no PS data, the frequency is displayed).

• In the PTY display, NO DATA or NONE may be shown. In this case, the PS display is shown after a few seconds.

3 RDS is only possible in the FM band.
