RDS (Radio Data System) OPERATION
RDS is a broadcasting service which a growing
number of FM stations are now providing. It al-
lows these FM stations to send additional signals
along with their regular programme signals. For
example, the stations send their station names,
and information about what type of programme
they broadcast, such as sports or music, etc.
When tuned to an FM station providing the RDS
service, RDS will appear, the station frequency
(and then the station name if sent) will be dis-
played.
The TP (Traffic Programme) will appear on the
display when the received broadcast carries traf-
fic announcements, and the TA (Traffic An-
n o u n c e m e n t)  w i ll  a p p ea r  wh il s t  a  tr af fi c
announcement is being received.
EON will appear whilst the EON (Enhanced Other
Networks information) data is being broadcast.
Note:
When the TP and TA appear at the same time,
an announcement is being made.
When only the TA appears, an announcement is
not being made. (See page 21.)
