Radio data system (RDS):
RDS stands for Radio Data System, and is a data
information service transmitted by some radio
stations on the FM band (not AM band) and/or
SAT radio encoded within a regular SAT broad-
cast. Currently, most RDS stations are in large
cities, but many stations are now considering
broadcasting RDS data.
RDS can display:
● Station call sign, such as “WHFR 98.3”.
● Station name, such as “The Groove”.
● Music or programming type such as “Clas-
sical”, “Country” or “Rock”.
If the station broadcasts RDS information, the
RDS icon is displayed.
Program type (PTY):
PTY can be used to search for a certain program
type. Certain areas have a limited number of
stations that transmit RDS. Many stations trans-
mit call letters and frequencies only.
Searching or scanning by program type may yield
a limited number of selections.
When CAT/RPT button is pressed for more than
1.5 seconds during FM or SAT (if so equipped)
mode, the PTY name of the current tuned station
is displayed. During this time if the PTY data code
is zero or the data is unreadable, the display will
show NONE.
To change the PTY:
1. Press the CAT/RPT button.
2. Press the TUNE/FF-REV (
or )
up/down button to chose a specific program
type.
ROCK, CLASSIC ROCK, SOFT ROCK,

SEEK tuning:
3. After selecting a program type, push the
SEEK/TRACK button ( or ) for
less than 1.5 seconds within 10 seconds.
Tuning to the PTY station will start. If you do
not push the SEEK button within the 10
second period, the PTY mode will be can-
celed.
SCAN tuning:
4. Push the SCAN button for more than 1.5
seconds to scan the PTY name stations and
stop at each broadcasting station for 5 sec-
onds. Pushing the button again during this 5
second period will stop SCAN tuning and
the radio will remain tuned to that station. If
the SCAN button is not pushed within 5
seconds, SCAN tuning moves to the next
station.
