An introduction to RDS
Radio Data System (RDS) is a system used by
most FM radio stations to provide listeners with
various kinds of information, such as the name
of the station and the kind of show being
broadcast.
One feature of RDS is that you can search by
type of program. For example, you can search
for a station that’s broadcasting a show with
the program type, JAZZ.
You can search the following program types:
1
RDS Search/PTY Search/TP Search
