RDS reception is available only on the European

are available.
What is RDS?
Many FM stations now transmit RDS signals which
contain additional information. RDS provides you

station broadcasting your favorite categories of
music or other information. The information below
is available through the T-405X.

When RT is received, it can sometimes take
between a few seconds and 15 seconds (more or
less) to display.
Sometimes the following messages will be shown
on the display.

time to receive the RT information. When the

and indicates that even though an RDS station is
being received, the signal does not contain RT
