Using RDS (Radio Data System) 
RDS is a system that transmits useful information (in the form of 
digital data) for FM broadcasts along with the broadcast signal. 
Tuners and receivers designed for RDS reception can extract 
the information from the broadcast signal for use with various 
functions, such as automatic display of the station name.
Before using a function utilizing the RDS, be sure to perform the 
RDS Auto Memory operation by referring to the description in 
<RDS Auto Memory> 
U.

remaining places.
PS (Program Service) Name Display
