RDS (Radio Data System) Reception
EON-CT and PTY may not be available in some areas. (Future function)
AF (Alternative Frequency)
When receiving condition becomes poor, a station
broadcasting with the same program will be auto-
matically selected.
EON (Enhanced Other Networks)
When receiving RDS station with Enhanced Other
Networks (EON) service available, this unit operates
to renew the built-in frequency lists of the RDS sta-
tion you are listening to, and those of the preset RDS
stations, thus enhancing the AF function.
PS (Program Service Name)
When RDS broadcast station is tuned in, the name
of the station will be snown.
P| (Program Identification)
If the RDS broadcast station is preset and its recep-
tion is poor when it is called, automatic seek (PI
Seek) will start to tune in to the same program.
PTY (Program TYpe)

Example : News, rock, classical music
REG(Region)
Ifthe “REG” switch is in the position ON, the selection of alternative frequency changeover is exclusively
limited to the reception of broadcasting stations which transmit the same program and the same program
identification. This should be used mainly in the city where you drive frequently.
If the “RREG” switch is in the position OFF, stations that broadcast the same program can be received, if
possible. If those stations are in poor receiving condition, another station broadcasting a different program
can be automatically received. This should be used mainly in areas away from your area where you usually
drive.

WAC RM:
e Select AF ON if you wish to use the AF network of an RDS station.
Best station research is activated at the same time.
e Select AF OFF if the AF network of an RDS station is not necessary.
To Change AF Mode
AF mode changes as shown below when AF is pressed while receiv-
ing the band FM1, FM2, or FM3.
Best station research also takes place at the same time (3 seconds
maximum).
Notes:
1. Default mode is AF1
2. In AF ON mode, AF, P! SEEK, PS display, and best station research
are effective.
3. In AF OFF mode, only the AF function goes off.
Best Station Research
{f the called frequency is not in good receiving condition, the fre-
quency in the best receiving condition is selected from the AF list of
called stations. This function also checks the present condition of
reception for each station on the AF list and learns it.
Notes:
1. AF1 has a low level of AF operating sensitivity for urban areas.
Therefore, AF does not frequently operate even if sensitivity is
temporarily lowered between skyscrapers, for example.
2. AF2 is for suburban areas with a higher {evel of sensitivity than
AF1.

lists for all of the presets, not just the one currently tuned in. So even if you switch presets far from home.
you will receive an alternative frequency for the same station, or another station carrying the same program,
when such exists. EON also keeps track of locally available TP stations for quick.
