Type of program (PTY)

You can receive even more information

by using RDS. Certain stations broad-

cast the station's particular type of

program (PTY), e.g. NEWS, SPORTS,

POP MUSIC, CULTURE etc.

If there is weak or interrupted recep-

tion, it can take quite a while before

PTY is available.

PTY can also be used for catas-

trophe warnings. If the station is

broadcasting this type of program, then

"ALERT" will appear in the display.

Request type of program

The program type will be displayed for

a few seconds.

If the specific station does not provide

PTY recognition, "NO PTY" will appear

in the display.

shows up in the display.

For every change of station, or if the

station changes the program type, the

type will appear automatically for a few

seconds in the display.

Switching off PTY

Hold this key down until "PTY MAN"

shows up in the display.
