Receiving FM stations with RDS(Europe only)Various Functions Common to all the Sources
RDS(Radio Data System)is a broadcasting service which a growing number of FM stations are now providing. It allows the FM stations
to send additional signals along with their regular program signals. For example, the stations send their station names and informations
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, the station frequency(and then the station
name if sent)is displayed.

Not all FM stations provide RDS service, nor do all RDS stations provide same services. If in doubt, check with local radio stations for
