USING THE RDS FUNCTION
What is RDS?
The RDS (Radio Data System) is a digital information system developed by the EBU (European Broadcast Union). Piggy-backed on normal
FM broadcasts, RDS offers a variety of information services and automatic retuning functions for RDS-compatible car stereos.
In 1988, RDS became available in the United Kingdom, France, West Germany, Ireland and Sweden. Test transmissions are being conducted
in many other european countries. It is expected that RDS will be available in most western european countries in the near future.
