TUNING
■ RT (Radio Text) mode
Displays information about the program (such as the title
of the song or name of the singer) on the Radio Data
System station being received using a maximum of 64
alphanumeric characters, including the umlaut symbol. If
other characters are used for RT data, they are displayed
with an underbar ( _ ). If the station does not employ the
RT data service, this mode will not be selected.
■ CT (Clock Time) mode
Displays the current time, and is updated every minute.
If the data are accidentally cut off, "CT WAIT" may
appear. If the station does not employ the CT data service,
this mode will not be selected.
■ EON (Enhanced Other Networks)
See "EON function" on page 18.

Changing the Radio Data System
mode
Four modes are available for displaying Radio Data
System data. The PS, PTY, RT and/or CT indicators that
correspond to the Radio Data System data services offered
by the station light up in the front panel display.
Press FREQ/TEXT repeatedly to display the
various Radio Data System data offered by the
transmitting station.
FREQ/TEXT
Notes
• Do not press FREQ/TEXT until a Radio Data System indicator
lights up in the front panel display. You cannot change the mode
if you press the button prior to this. This is because this unit has
not finished receiving all of the Radio Data System data from
the station.
• Radio Data System data not offered by the station cannot be
selected.
• This unit cannot utilize the Radio Data System data source if
the signal received is not strong enough. In particular, the RT
mode requires a large amount of data, so it is possible that the
RT mode may not be displayed even if other Radio Data System
modes (PS, PTY, etc.) are displayed.
• Radio Data System data may not be received under poor
reception conditions. In such cases, press TUNING MODE
(AUTO/MAN'L) so that the AUTO indicator disappears from
the front panel display. Although this will change the reception
mode to manual, Radio Data System data may be displayed
when you change the display to Radio Data System mode.
• If the signal strength is weakened by external interference
during the reception of a Radio Data System station, the Radio
Data System data service may be cut off suddenly and
"...WAIT" will appear in the front panel display.
